The Michigan alumnus

This is a digital copy of a book that was preserved for generations on library shelves before it was carefully scanned by Google as part of a project
to make the world's books discoverable online.

It has survived long enough for the copyright to expire and the book to enter the public domain. A public domain book is one that was never subject
to copyright or whose legal copyright term has expired. Whether a book is in the public domain may vary country to country. Public domain books
are our gateways to the past, representing a wealth of history, culture and knowledge that's often difficult to discover.

Marks, notations and other marginalia present in the original volume will appear in this file - a reminder of this book's long journey from the
publisher to a library and finally to you.

Usage guidelines

Google is proud to partner with libraries to digitize public domain materials and make them widely accessible. Public domain books belong to the
public and we are merely their custodians. Nevertheless, this work is expensive, so in order to keep providing this resource, we have taken steps to
prevent abuse by commercial parties, including placing technical restrictions on automated querying.

We also ask that you:

+ Make non-commercial use of the files We designed Google Book Search for use by individuals, and we request that you use these files for
personal, non-commercial purposes.

+ Refrain from automated querying Do not send automated queries of any sort to Google's system: If you are conducting research on machine
translation, optical character recognition or other areas where access to a large amount of text is helpful, please contact us. We encourage the
use of public domain materials for these purposes and may be able to help.

+ Maintain attribution The Google "watermark" you see on each file is essential for informing people about this project and helping them find
additional materials through Google Book Search. Please do not remove it.

+ Keep it legal Whatever your use, remember that you are responsible for ensuring that what you are doing is legal. Do not assume that just
because we believe a book is in the public domain for users in the United States, that the work is also in the public domain for users in other
countries. Whether a book is still in copyright varies from country to country, and we can't offer guidance on whether any specific use of
any specific book is allowed. Please do not assume that a book's appearance in Google Book Search means it can be used in any manner
anywhere in the world. Copyright infringement liability can be quite severe.

About Google Book Search

Google's mission is to organize the world's information and to make it universally accessible and useful. Google Book Search helps readers
discover the world's books while helping authors and publishers reach new audiences. You can search through the full text of this book on the web

Michigan Alumnus

Vol. XXI.

OCTOBER. 1914

No. 197

EVENT AND COMMENT

While personal aC-
MICHICANAND counts of many of
THE WAR the members of the

Faculty who spent
their summer abroad have brought
the terrible event in Europe close to
Ann Arbor, yet the war has incon-
venienced the University very little.
The latter days of September saw al-
most all the members of the Faculty
back at work safely, though one, Mr.
Rene Talamon, instructor in French,
who was spending his honeymoon at
his home in Paris, is now at the front
with the French army. His wife, who
was Miss Beatrice Underwood, of
Nashville, Tennessee, is with his fam-
ilv in Paris. Several members of the
Faculty experienced difficulties in se-
curing accommodations home, but all
were able to get through, and almost
universally deny undue hardship.
Dean John O. Reed, '85, who has
been living in Germany for the past
two years, on account of ill health, is
now at Jena, and Professor and Mrs.
Scott, who were in Germany when the
war broke out, found some difficulty
in leaving, but reached Ann Arbor
early in October. (S. The shortage of
chemicals and medicine, due to the
\rar, has been felt in the Departments
of Chemistry and Medicine, though
classes will be held as usual in Chem-
istry, for the first semester at least.
It is hoped that by the end of that
time substitutes may be found for the
necessary materials. Glassware and
special surgical instruments are also

difficult, if not impossible, to secure.
The lack of certain special chemicals
and medicines, and many of the dyes
that are used in the preparation of
microscopic slides will greatly hamper
the work in many courses. Cl^The Uni-
versity Library, too, has felt the force
of the war. Practically all of the Ger-
man scientific publications, and many
of the French, have ceased. Orders
for books, however, are still being re-
ceived by certain of the publishing
houses in Leipsic, subject to future
delivery. The French correspondents
of the Library have practically closed
their business, and there will be little
received from either France or Ger-
many during the war. If the war
should extend over several years, the
LTniversity will undoubtedly be seri-
ously inconvenienced in places where
so far there has been little undue in-
convenience.

It is rather an irony
TO THE MEMORY of fate to be immor-
OF LEO talized in bronze, and

then to be presented
to the public under the wrong name.
And this is what almost befell the
four-footed companion of President
Tappan in the bronze portrait which
was unveiled last June, through the
mistake of The Alumnus. His name
was not Nero, but Leo, much more
fitting when one comes to think of it,
and we are very glad to make the cor-
rection. (S, No portrait painted in the

THE MICHIGAN ALUMNUS

[October

memory of Dr. Tappan's students is
complete without this faithful friend.
How strong was the bond between
the two may be gathered from a letter
from President Tappan to Dr. Cory-
don L. Ford in 1865, which was pub-
lished in The Alumnus for October,
1912. President Tappan says: "My
old dog Leo, who died the last sum-
mer I spent in Michigan, and whom
I buried under a tree in my garden,
often comes up before me when I sit
alone and he seems to lay his head on
my knee again and to look up into
my face with his gentle, knowing eyes,
and I feel as one feels when he recalls
the tender memory of a departed
friend. I know not how far you have
gone in these matters, or what your
experience has been. To me the rela-
tions between us and the domestic
animals is a subject of deep interest
and a home seems hardly complete
without them."

Michigan's coming
OCT. 31; MICHIGAN game with Harvard
vs. HARVARD has aroused enthusi-
asm as has no other
game in years. In spite of the logic
of circumstances and difficulties which
on paper at least seem decidedly
against the Varsity, the general spirit
is surprisingly confident. That is of
course as it should be. If we are go-
ing to play Harvard, we must meet
her with a belief that we are going
to win. I^et the prognostications of
the critics and the careful balancing
of teams by the "armchair strategists"
pass. There are some things which
enter into the make-up of a team that
cannot be measured — ^the spirit of the
players, the morale, to quote a phrase
used much these days, a certain ag-
gressive spirit, a daring, which we
believe our men have. C^lt is just here,
we believe, that the secret of Mr.
Yost's success as a coach lies. The
game will probably reveal the strength
of western aggressive play, but it will

be decidedly important for Michigan
to have a line which can stand against
Harvard's weight. This, of course,
was the great problem during the
early days of the coaching season.
Practice was under way much earlier
than ever before, the mid-week games
have been revived and as a result in
the first games Michigan appeared to
have at least two weeks advantage
over former seasons. Michigan is
admittedly strong in the backfield.
Hughitt, Maulbetsch, Splawn, Catlett,
Gait and a number of competitors
pressing them hard are all formidable
players, although somewhat lighter in
weight than is comfortable. The ex-
periments of the early season with the
line were fairly reassuring; good de-
fensive players seemed, if not exactly
plentiful, yet available in sufficient
numbers. But the aggressive oflFense
on the part of the line, which is going
to be so necessary, was still a problem
at the time of this writing. We be-
lieve, however, that it can be develop-
ed, that the right men can be found
and that Michigan will at least give
a good account of herself. We hope
she will do more.

To the alumni the
FOR THOSE WHO Spectacular qualities
SEE THE GAME of a game between
Michigan and Har-
vard have made a strong appeal.
There is no doubt but that Michigan
is going to be represented in force at
Cambridge. Special trains have been
planned from many points. Many
summer vacations have been post-
poned until this time, and there is no
doubt the game will be one of the
best attended in which Michigan has
ever participated. The Boston alumni
are planning to entertain the visitors,
with a smoker and mass meeting on
the Friday evening before, to which
all who come from away are invited.
Further details are given in the an-
nouncement on page 48. (^ The sug-

gestions contained in the letter of
Merrill S. June, '12/, which is pub-
lished on another page, should be well
considered by everyone who plans to
attend. The cheerleaders will be there,
and also the pamphlets gfiving the
**new ones." His suggestion regard-
ing the character of the cheers desir-
able in the Harvard Stadium has been
submitted to the Varsity cheer leader,
and something will undoubtedly be
evolved which will be suitable.

Meanwhile we have
FOR THOSE WHO a suggestion for the
ARE LEFT BEHIND stay-at-homes. A few

thousand of them
unfortunately, will be left. But if they
can't be at the game, they can gather
to receive returns. We have a large
number of local alumni associations,
and many of them hold weekly or
monthly meetings. Why not plan one
meeting for the afternoon of Satur-
day, October 31 ? If enough of these
meetings are orgapized, the General
Association will endeavor to arrange
for a correspondent and for special
rates on the wires. Cl^ Or perhaps you
have no local association. Then or-
ganize one, and write to the General
Association. The time is short after
you receive this issue, but it can be
done. Start your organization at
once, and write to the General Asso-
ciation for a list of alumni in your
locality. It will be sent immediately.

the recent past, the pendulum has been
swinging towards the all-inclusive
A.B., though of late there have been
signs of a reaction. The whole ques-
tion is more than a lining up of con-
servative and progressive forces. It
is quite possible that in the long run,
the progressives will prove to be those
who insist on a more rigid interpre-
tation of the A.B., leaving another
designation for those who elect the
newer subjects which do not have be-
hind them the traditions which have
come to be associated with the Arts
course. (S. The situation as viewed
by those who have misgivings over
the inflated A.B. is well outlined by
the editor of The Nation in his an-
nual educational issue. He quotes the
experience of a member of the faculty
in one of our universities, who dis-
covered, in a room where he had ex-
pected to find a mathematical semin-
ary, six gas ranges, a complete out-
fit of pots and pans and in a neighbor-
ing room, a number of dressmakers'
forms, while a class in the art of book-
keeping occupied the floor below, all
in courses in a college of liberal arts.
He raises the question whether pro-
ficiency in the art of cooking, sewing
or joinery should properly count to-
wards a degree hitherto reserved
through long years as a recognition
of liberal culture.

One of the great

THE A.B. DEGREE ^ju^ation seems to be
symbolized by the
struggle now going on about the good
old A.B. degree. There are those who
believe that it is losing its significance
in the multiplicity of new vocational
and broad cultural subjects, which
in some universities have come
to replace the old-fashioned insistence
ttpon the humanities and pure sciences
with their rigid mental discipline. Cl^In

being faced by a certificate to the fact
that he has successfully passed his

do away with a possible inference

under discussion in this matter.
(H Nevertheless, we believe that the
A.B. at Michigan contains something
of its old prestige, and is in a way to
regain more. There was a certain
tightness and rigidity in the old re-
quirements which were not in har-
mony with modem progress. Per-
haps in the past we wandered too far
afield, though we have surely not been
as venturesome as some of our con-
temporaries, but the result may not
be entirely unfortunate, if we bring
back to the old ways a certain new
vigor and correlation of academic
ways to modem life. To spread the
degree out so far that it means every-
thing and nothing would certainly be
unfortunate. If, as the writer in The
Nation believes, it is only a question
of time when the degree of bachelor
of arts will confer as little distinction
as a f>assport and less than a life in-
suraiKe policy, standing neither for
mental culture nor for useful knowl-
edge, then it is time for a revision and
a distinction of educational values and
a more guarded definition of the lib-
eral culture he demands. The sug-
gested remedy is surely simple, merely
to ensure that the courses leading to
the degree of A.B. be of proved in-
tellectual content.

Public opinion in Ann
THE DORMITORY Arbor of late has be-
QUESTION come quite conscious

of the rooming ques-
tion for students. We are beginning
to see that it is one of the pressing
problems of the present. A solution
has begun, where it should properly
begin, with the halls of residence for
freshman women. Here necessity was
particularly pressing. But the needs
of the men are almost as insistent,
particularly so now that the fraterni-
ties are not permitted to have their
freshmen in the fraternity houses.
CF, In discussing the new freshman

dormitories at Harvard, the editor of
The Nation, in a recent issue, recalls
the hopeless loneliness of the fresh-
man's first plunge into college life,
"without friends or ties, and a bed-
room in some cheap frame boarding
house." If that is tme at Harvard,
it is doubly tme at Michigan. Har-
vard has tackled the problem aggres-
sively, and, in the opinion of the writ-
er just quoted, this establishment of
freshman dormitories is by all odds
President Lowell's most important
undertaking. CD, The new dormitories
are opened this fall. They consist of
nine buildings in three groups, each
group consisting of three dormitories,
with a common dining room and living
room in the center one. We probably
cannot realize just what benefits
would come to the student body at
Ann Arbor if the freshmen were
started in this way, but its first eflFect
would certainly be democratization
and an equality which we need. Even
more important, it would better in-
finitely living conditions. CD, Michigan,
almost more than any other university
is suflFering tmder an antique system,
patterned after the German universi-
ties, where the students room out
among the townsfolk. This was all
right in the early days when the Uni-
versity was small and the town was
large enough to accommodate the stu-
dents. But the rapid growth of the
University in late years has brought
about a condition that is becoming in-
tolerable. Recent investigations have
shown that a dormitory can be built
as a paying investments and still offer
accommodations at a reasonable price
to the students. Even at Cambridge,
where prices are probably higher than
at Ann Arbor, the meals are to be
fumished at about five dollars a week,
and the rooms are to cost from thirty-
five to two hundred and twenty-five
dollars a year, certainly not an ex-
travagant scale, even for Michigan.
The need at Michigan in this respect
is as imperative as that at Harvard.

EVENT AND COMMENT

Work on the new
FOR THE FRESH- halls fof the women
MAN GIRLS is progressing rapid-

ly. The walls of the
Helen Handy Newberry Hall, on
State Street, opposite University Hall,
are well up, and some idea of the ap-
pearance of the building can already
be obtained. The other larger dormi-
tory, the gift of an unknown donor,
is progressing somewhat more slowly,
simply from the fact that it is so much
larger. Nevertheless, the steel con-
struction is well above the ground
level, and the walls are beginning to
rise. Both buildings will be complet-
ed for use next year. CD, Meanwhile,
the University has not b^en waiting
for the new buildings to welcome the
freshman girls. Extra efforts have
been made this past year to get in
touch with all who were coming to the
University, and practically every
freshman who had signified her inten-
tion of doing so received at least three
letters from a member of the junior
girls' advisory board, giving her help,
advice and useful hints. This organi-
zation has also taken one of the rooms
on the second floor of University Hall
as its headquarters, and a corps of
junior girls are on hand constantly to
help and advise the newcomers. In
fact, nothing has been neglected which
would ensure the freshman's starting
right. Next ye^ar the situation will
be even more favorable, with the new
dormitories added to the long list of
approved rooming houses for Univer-
sity women.

From the August
SOME ALUMNI number of The Mich-
ARE PLEASED igan Bulletin, "of, by
and for Michigan
men of Chicago," we take pleasure in
quoting the following appreciation of
the efforts of the University and the
Alumni Association last Commence-
ment:

Alumni may well feel gratified by the
improvement noticeable in Commencement

Week conditions at the University. Com-
mencement is no longer the dreary affair
of the past.

The authorities have long recognized
the necessity of making the proceedings
more attractive and entertaining if alum-
ni interest and attendance were to be in-
creased. Hence the June ball games with
Pennsylvania, which have proved a most
successful experiment, supplying, as they
do, an element of the highest interest to
alumni, most of whom enjoy few oppor-
tunities to see a Michigan team in action.

The Mass Meeting in Hill Memorial,
followed by the procession of alumni, led
by the "M men" and the Michigan band,
a splendid organization as re-organized,
is another new feature which has great
possibilities and should be made an an-
nual event.

Other significant changes can be ob-
served. In shoft, on every hand it is
apparent that concerted effort is being
made to accomplish the purposes alluded
to, and it must be said that a very grati-
fying measure of success has been gained.
Much remains to be done, doubtless, for
a revolution of this sort cannot be ac-
complished in a short time, but if this
purpose continues to animate those in
charge Commencement at Michigan bids
fair to become the controlling factor in
the University's campaign to knit more
closely the bonds uniting herself and her
alumni.

One of the most noticeable of the re-
cent developments incident to Commence-
ment is the so-called "Graduates' Club,"
an exclusively social institution which
holds two or three evening meetings dur-
ing Commencement Week in the old skat-
ing rink, and whose purpose is to furnish
visiting alumni an opportunity to meet
and refresh themselves with song, etc.,
free from restrictions and formality. For
the conception and launching of this
project we are indebted to the enterprise
of certain well-known alumni, resident in
Ann Arbor.

Now is the time to
NOW FOR REUN- make plans for the
IONS IN 1915 reunions next June.

It is not a minute to
early to begin to stir things up. The
last Commencement season was unus-
ually successful, as the foregoing

shows, but there is no reason why we
should not have twice as much enthu-
siasm next year. In the first place,
remember the date, June 22 and 23,
1915, and plan to be there, particular-
ly if your class is due to hold a re-
union. According to the Dix sched-
ule, the following classes are due to
meet: '13, '02, '01. '00, '99, '83, '82,
'81, '80, ^64, '63, *62, '61. CD; There
are some classes, however, which
still prefer to adhere to the old
schedule. In that case, it will be those

whose year ends in 5 or o. If your
class plans to hold a reunion, you will
probably hear from your class secre-
tary soon, but if you have no word,
or if you belong to one of those class-
es who have no class secretary, we
recommend that the individual mem-
bers of the class get busy. Write to
the General Secretary, and he will see
that a class secret4r>' is appointed.
There is no reason why we shouldn't
have thirty or forty class reunions
next June.

EVENT IN BRIEF

EVENT IN BRIEF
Dean John O. Reed, '85, who has
been abroad on leave for several years
past in an attempt to regain his health,
has resigned as Dean of the Literary
Department. Professor John R. Ef-
finger, '91, who has filled Dean Reed's
place during his absence, has been re-
tained by the Regents as Acting Dean.

The Ben Greet Woodland Players
were in Ann Arbor from July 23 to
July 25 for their usual Summer
School engagement, giving five per-
formances on the Campus. The plays
presented were "Masques and Faces,"
by Charles Reade and Tom Taylor;
"Twelfth Night"; "A Midsummer
Night's Dream"; "As You Like- It';
and "The Tempest."

Principal Jesse B. Davis, of the
Grand Rapids Central High School,
gave a series of five lectures on the
different phases of vocational training
from July 20 to 25 inclusive, as a part
of the Summer Session lecture pro-
gram. Mr. I>avis' subjects included:
"The Vocational Guidance Move-
ment:" "Vocational and Moral Guid-
ance— A Problem of the Public
Schools, No. I, "Below the High^
School:" No. 2, "The High School;"
"The Vocation Bureau;" and "The
Practical Application of Moral Guid-
ance."

Walton H. Hamilton, Assistant
Professor of Political Economy in the
University, has resigned his position
to accept an assistant professorship in
the same subject at the University of
Chicago. Professor Hamilton has
taught here for four years, coming to
the University as an instructor in
1910. In addition to teaching the ele-
mentary classes, he has h^d charge of
the courses in current problems and
industrial reforms. In his new posi-
tion. Professor Hamilton will have
charge of the work in economic theo-
ry, which is made up for the most
part of graduate courses.

The Landscape Department has
taken over the old botanical gardens
on the Boulevard, which were found
inadequate for botanical experiments,
and plans to transform them into a
laboratory for advanced students in
landscape design. This will necessi-
tate a great amount of work, and ac-
cording to Professor Tealdi, who is
supervising the project, it will be a
year or more before the laboratory
will be completed and ready for actual
use.

H. Beach Carpenter, '14, '16/, Rock-
ford, III, managing editor of The
Michigan Daily for the coming year,
and W. Sherwood Field, '15, Grand
Rapids, business manager, have ap-
pointed the following members of the
Daily staff: Fred B. Foulk, '15/, Ann
Arbor, editor of the Cosmopolitcm
Student, news editor; T. Hawley
Tapping, '16/, Peoria, 111., and Francis
F. McKinney, '16/, Washington, D.
C, associate editors ; Felix M. Church,
'14, Ann Arbor, sporting editor.

Permission has been given provi-
sionally by the Senate for an extended
trip for the 1915 Michigan Union
Opera during the week of spring va-
cation, April 10 to 19, inclusive. It
is planned to visit all the nearby
towns th^t are strong enough in alum-
ni sentiment, and Manager Heath, of
the Union, has outlined a tentative
itinerary which includes visits to
Grand Rapids, Kalamazoo, South
Bend, Chicago, Fort Wayne, Toledo
and Detroit. If the alumni demand is
strong enough, it is probable that two
performances will be given in both
Detroit and Chicago. The Hill Audi-
torium, will, in all probability, be used
for the home performances, instead
of the Whitney Theater, as formerly.
Comparatively little expense will be
needed to make the stage of the Audi-
torium suitable for the production of
the Opera, and the large hall will en-
sure accommodations for everyone
who wishes to attend.

It will interest and please many
alumni to learn that the University
will profit to the extent of some $192,-
ocx) annually through the recent re-
valuation of the vState by the Tax
Commissioners. The tax is now three-
eighths of a mill.

A fellowship carrying a stipend of
$500 has been established this year at
the University by the Flavoring Ex-
tract Manufacturers' Association for
an independent authoritative scientific
study of the manufacture and analysis
of vanilla extract. Dr. Julius O.
Schlotterbeck, 'Syp, '91, who has this
fall returned to his professorship in
the Department of Pharmacy after
two years leave of absence, is the
chairman of the committee on Scien-
tific Research, and is also vice-presi-
dent of the Association. Samuel H.
Baer, '96, of the B'lanke-Baer Chem-
ical Co., St. Louis, is the president of
the Association.

At the University of Michigan at
the present time there are seventeen
sectional clubs, representing as many
diflPerent portions of the country. The
largest club is that composed of stu-
dents from the State of Illinois, with
a membership last year of 102, and
the deans of the Literary and Law
Departments as honorary members.
The Dixie Club, made up of students
whose homes are below the Mason
and Dixon line, has a membership of
73, with 16 states represented. One
hundred and twenty-five students,
representing 28 countries, make up
the membership of the Cosmopolitan
Club. The Thumb Club, made up of
men coming from the "Thumb" dis-
trict of Michigan, numbers 60 mem-
bers ; the Club I^atino Americano, an
organization of students whose homes
are located, as its name indicates, in
the Latin-American countries, has a
membership of 18; and the Rocky
Mountain Club, now the Kappa Beta
Psi fraternity, is made up of 40 men
representing 12 states west of the

Mississippi; while in the Dominion
Club, made up of students from Can-
ada, are more than a score of mem-
bers. Among the state clubs are the
Indiana Club, organized last year,
with a membership of 60; the New
York State Club, which is housed in
its own building, with 30 members;
and the Kentucky Club, with 35 mem-
bers. Of the city clubs, that repre-
senting Grand Rapids is the largest,
with 64 members. In the Cabinet
Club, are 26 men whose homes are in
Washington, and 20 students living
in BuflFalo have recently organized a
club. Two Detroit high schools are
represented in clubs, the Phoenix
Club, with a membership made up of
40 graduates from the Detroit West-
em High School, and the Totem Club,
with about the same number of alimi-
ni from the Detroit Eastern High
School as members.

From Lieutenant Thomas M.
Spaulding, '05, now at Washington,

EVENT IN BRIEF

Dr. Victor C. Vaughan, Dean of
the Medical Department, was inaugu-
rated as President of the American
Medical Association at its sixty-fifth
annual convention, held at Atlantic
City in June, succeeding Dr. John A.
Witherspoon, of Nashville, Tenn. For
his inaugural address, Dr. Vaughan
chose the subject **The Service of
Medicine to Civilization.*'

That the University Hospital is
rapidly increasing both in size and
efficiency is shown by the figures re-
cently compiled for the year ending
June 30, 1913. During that time, the
Hospital cared for 6,803 patients, an
increase of 1,107 over the previous
year. Of this number, 791 came from
outside the State. This increase was
made possible by the recent extensive
improvements in the hospital pbnt,

whereby a larger number of patients
can be accommodated, and be better
cared for, than at any time in the his-
tor\' of the Hospital. The receipts
for that year from all sources amount-
ed to $124,928.22, an increase of
$26,757.86 over 1911-12, but the run-
ning expenses, nevertheless, exceeded
the receipts by some $10,000. Seven-
ty-four beds have been added, making
the total capacity of the Hospital 374.
As the State has recently made it pos-
sible for the judges of probate to refer
children to the University Hospital at
their discretion for treatment at state
expense, thirty-five of the new beds
were added to the children's ward in
order to meet this emergency. The
number of nurses in the training
school has also been increased from
100 to 125, and the number of nurses
in the hospital from 65 to 125.

THE' SUMMER SESSION

According to figures recently made public by Dean E. H. Kraus, the
registration for the Summer Session of 1914 proved to be the largest in the
history of the University. A total of 1,594 students were enrolled, a gain of
192 over the previous year. With the exception of the Biological Station,
where only 2^ students were registered, as against 29 in 1913, there were
substantial increases in every department, the largest being shown in the
Departments of Engineering and Architecture, in the Graduate Department,
and in the courses in Library Methods, Embalming and Sanitary Science.
Ninety-five students were enrolled at the Bogardus Engineering Camp, a
gain of 35 over previous years; 12 registered for the course in Sanitary
Science, as against three in 1913, while the unexpectdly large registration
of 33 in the Library Methods course taxed to the utmost the present facili-
ties f»r instruction.

Following is the comparative table of attendance for 1913 and 1914
in the different departments :

Unusual interest was shown this year in the program of special lectures
and entertainments. The seventy-two numbers included fifty-two lectures,
two geological excursions, four recitals by the Department of Oratory, five
open-air performances by the Ben Greet Woodland Players, six concerts
in Hill Auditorium by the members of the Faculty of the University School
of Music, three vistors' nights at the Observatory and the President's an-
nual reception to the students of the Summer Session. :fn addition to the
usual lectures by members of the University Faculty, addresses were given
by Dr. E. S. Buchanan, of Oxford, England; Regent J. E. Beal, of Ann
Arbor ; Dr. J. L. Snyder, President of the Michigan Agricultural College ;
Mr. J. B. r^vis. Principal of the Grand Rapids Central High School ; Re-
gent L. L. Hubbard, of Houghton; Mr. E. C. Warriner, Superintendent
of Schools of Saginaw, E. S. ; and Dr. C. E. Chadsey, Superintendent of
Schools of Detroit.

The Ann Arbor Civic Association also co-operated with the University,
offering courses in typewriting, stenography and domestic science, and
conducting an extensive program of popular lectures and entertainments,
in addition to those offered by the University.

1914I COMPARATIVE CLUB STANDINGS n

THE COMPARATIVE STANDING OF FRATERNITIES AND HOUSE
CLUBS

The scholastic standing of the fraternities, sororities and other house
clubs in the University for the year 1913-14 is shown in the third annual
chart which has just been made public. As a whole, the statistics are en-
couraging. Comparison with the two previous charts, the second of which
was published in the October, 1913, Alumnus, is interesting. There is a
noticeable upward movement on the part of the general fraternities, with
the average raised from below to just above the C grade, or passing line.
This, however, is the lowest general average in any classification. The
chart reveals the fact that all the fraternities are still way below all the
sororities, with one exception, a sorority in which most of the members are
from the School of Music.

Quite noticeable is the improvement in the two tail-enders of previous
years, Sigma Phi, which is now well above the average grade, advancing to
ninth place in two years, and Delta Chi, which has risen to just above
the average in one year. The lead is still held by Kappa Beta Psi, formerly
known as the Rocky Mountain Club. The highest average in the general
classifications is that of the "general sororities," with the "other women's
clubs" not far behind. Both of these classifications are well above the aver-
age for the entire University, while all the men's organizations are below.
The average for all unorganized students is slightly above the general
average, while that of all house clubs is somewhat below, — a, rather signifi-
cant fact. There has been a slight falling-off in the averages of "women's
clubs" other than sororities, and for "other men's clubs," which has reduced
the general average for all house clubs slightly. The average for all unor-
ganized students has also dropped slightly during the past year.

In the column where correction was needed the most, that of the gen-
eral fraternities, the leaders are higher than last year, and the lowest fra-
ternity is not so low. The general emphasis is rather above the C grade,
while last year it was considerably below. The rapid rise of the foot of the
class is a sure indication of the effect of the publication of these charts,
though it is to be regretted that certain organizations seem contented with
the average, or worse than average, position, which they hold. The way in
which the charts have been heeded, however, is a striking commentary on
the need for some such stimulant for scholarship. The fraternities them-
selves have become conscious of the need of improvement, and the recent
organization on their own initiative, of an Inter-fraternity Conference is
the result. After a series of conferences with the University Senate, the
fraternities revised their house rules, and of their own accord adopted the
more stringent regulations regarding rushing and initiating freshmen, which
were published last year. The upperclassmen also took upon themselves the
duty of watching closely the work of the lowerclassmen. To aid in these
efforts for reform the fraternities requested that the comparative standing
of each fraternity, sorority and other organized groups be made public.
These charts which are distributed among the different groups, and are
widely used in rushing and as a spur for lagging students, were the result.

14 THE MICHIGAN ALUMNUS [October

ARRANGEMENTS FOR THE PENNSYLVANIA-MICHIGAN GAME

The following arrangements have been made by the Athletic Associa-
tion for the accommodation of Michigan and Pennsylvania alumni and their
friends in the distribution of seats for the Pennsylvania game on November
7. All applications for tickets should be made out to P. G. Bartelme, Ann
Arbor, and mailed at once, as all applications will be filled in the order hi
which they are received. This is important. In any case, the management
does not guarantee to furnish the seats in any particular location, although
if a special stand or section is specified, the sender's wishes will be followed
as far as possible. When that cannot be done, seats will be assigned in the
best possible location remaining, at the discretion of the management. All
applications must be in writing, and should reach the Athletic Association
on or before October 31 for the Pennsylvania game. The same arrange-
ments are in force for the Cornell game, which is to be held Saturday,
November 14, for which applications should reach the Association on or
before November 7. Remittances must be made by New York, Chicago
or Detroit exchange, postoffice or express money order, payable to P. G.
Bartelme. Twelve cents in stamps should be included for return postage
and registering.

The prices of reserved seats for both, including admission, are as
follows :

Side Bleacher Seats, each $2 .00

Box Seats from the 20-yard line to the end of the field

(six seats in each box) each seat ' 3.00

Box Seats between the 20-yard lines (six seats in ^ich box)

Each seat 4.00

Special transportation arrangements will be made by the Michigan Cen-
tral and Ann Arbor Railroads and the interurban lines, so that there will be
ample train service from all points where the business warrants. Many
of these special trains will be run on the Ann Arbor tracks direct to the
field.

Arrangements have also been made with the Harvard Athletic Asso-
ciation whereby the University has the privilege of distributing reservations
for the Harvard game to the Michigan alumni and their friends. This
will bring Michigan's supporters together in one of the most desirable

next year he was made professor in the same subject, and in 1907
he was called to the University of Minnesota as assistant professor
of anatomy of the nervous system. Here he has remained, becom-
ing in 1908 associate professor of comparative neurology, and the
next year professor of that subject. The summers of 1896 and
1901 he spent at the Marine Biological Laboratory in further study,
and the summer of 1904 he was at the Bermuda Biological Station. In
1904-5 he was a student at the Zoological Station at Naples and the Uni-
versity of Freiburg. Since 1910 he has acted as secretary of the medical
faculty, and since 1911 as editor-in-chief of the Research Publications.

SOME GIFTS TO THE UNIVERSITY

Through the generosity of Mr. Dean C. Worcester, '89, ScD. (hon)
'14, member of the second Philippine Commission, and until recently
Secretary of the Interior of the Philippine Islands, the University has
received a large and very valuable collection of documents relating to the
Philippine Islands. This gift to the University was made known to the
Regents at their July meeting through a letter from Mr. Worcester describ-
ing in some detail the character of the collection.

The collection represents the work of more than fourteen years of
service in the Philippines. Some of the documents are printed, many of
theni are in manuscript, while a considerable number are of a confidential
nature. Included in the list are notes made on numerous exploring expe-
ditions into territory pre\'iously unknown or wtvy imperfectly known, un-
der Mr. Worcester's immediate supervision. They are illustrated with
numerous photographs which are now of considerable value, and will be-
come more valuable with the lapse of time.

There are copies of many of the official letters written during Mr.
Worcester's incumbency as Secretary of the Interior of the Islands, of
which he kept separate copies, as well as of many important endorsements.
These have all been bound by years and indexed. Copies of all documents
in connection with a number of important questions which provoked more
or less controversy are also preserved, while there is a fairly complete
set of official reports and government publications of every description.
There is also a valuable collection of newspaper clippings dealing with im-
portant events.

The only expense to the University connected with this very important
gift is the actual cost of packing and transportation, of such documents
as may be transmitted from time to time. There are a few restrictions which
arise out of the confidential nature of some of the documents, some of
which will be sealed, and are not to be opened until a date noted on the out-
side.

In accepting this generous gift, the Board of Regents provided that
the collection should be amply cared for in the new reserve book stacks
of the University Library, and that it should be known as the Dean C.
Worcester Collection of Manuscripts and Books Dealing with the Philipn
pines.

Further provision was made for the copying of a series of selected
documents, numbering some 250,000, which were captured by the army

during the insurrection in the Philippines. These were written in Spanish,
Spanish cipher, Tagalog or Tagalog cipher and some even in Visayan or
other native dialects. They had been translated by Major J. R. M. Taylor,
of the Department of Military Information, who with a corps of assist-
ants worked for four years translating and classifying them. Major Taylor
also wrote an important historical narrative covering the last insurrection
of the Philippines against Spain, the insurrection against the United States
and the establishment of civil government, supporting his statements by more
than 1, 800 carefully selected documents which were attached as exhibits.

It had been originally intended to publish this matter, but the plan was
abandoned when the type was set and standing. The plates were destroyed,
but four sets of galley proof had fortunately been taken. One set of these
proofs, at present the property of Major-General J. F. Bell, is now in
Mr. Worcester's custody. As the documents are of very great importance
in adding great understanding of past and present conditions in the Phil-
ippine Islands, it is suggested by Mr. Worcester that a typewritten copy be
made of them. Provision was accordingly made by the University for
copying the matter, which consists of some 987 galleys, the whole forming
a great addition to the collection.

In connection with Dean C. Worcester's gift, it is also a pleasure to
notice a gift to the University of Dr. C. B. de Nancrede, Professor of
Surgery in the Medical Department, received by the Regents at the same
meeting. In a letter to the Board Dr. de Nancrede stated that he had a
number of useful and valuable medical instruments which he desired to
present to the University Hospital, where he hoped they might prove as
serviceable as they had in the past. Although they are not now capable of
being sold for any such amount, the original cost was about $1,000, and it
would require that sum to duplicate them. Dr. de Nancrede also found that
he had some hundreds of medical works in his possession which were not
in the possession of the University Library, and he asked that such books
as were not duplicates be accepted by the University in order that they
might be of use to students. Dr. de Nancrede estimates that there are about
500 volumes in the collection.

THE NEW STAND ON FERRY FIELD

Construction of the concrete football stand has been progressing rap-
idly all summer long, and was practically complete on September 11. All
that remained to be done after this date was the placing of a large portion
of the ten inch plank seats on their concrete pedestals. Half of the stand
was ready for use at the time of the early games of the season, while the
whole stand will be dedicated, it is expected, at the Pennsylvania game on
November 7, 19 14.

The seats of the stand are arranged somewhat differently from those
in the stadiums of other universities. For a person of ordinary height
there will be four inches clearance above any person sitting in front of him.

a result obtained by constructing the first eleven rows with 9-inch risers,
the second eleven with lo-inch risers, the third eleven with ii-inch risers,
the fourth eleven with 12-inch risers and the last eleven with 13-inch risers.
This arrangement, which gives the stand a graceful, concave appearance,
has, according to the athletic authorities, caused a rather amusing rumor
to be circulated to the effect that the stand was sinking in tlje middle.

A careful study of the concrete stands and stadiums elsewhere was
made by the Board in Control of Athletics before the plans for this new
one were prepared. The Board feels confident that for the purposes in-
tended, viz., to seat as large a number of people as possible comfortably,
and to bring them as close as possible to the field of play, the type of this
new stand is superior to any other, though costing considerably less per
seat.

Some comparative figures with the stands at Yale, Harvard and Chi-
cago have been prepared by the Association. The capacity of the present
structure, which is one side of the projected stadium, is 13,200. The
capacity of the stand partially completed at Chicago is 8,800; for the
complete stadium at Harvard 39,000, and 61,500 for the "bowl" at Yale.
Whereas the present structure at Michigan cost $55,000, Yale's will cost
$550,000, with the others somewhat less. There are 55 rows in the Mich-
igan stand as against 33 at Chicago, 31 at Harvard and 57 at Yale. The
distance from the side line of the thirty-first row at Michigan is 104 feet, at
Chicago 115 feet, at Harvard 106 feet and at Yale 148 feet, while the dis-
tance from the goal line, if extended across the stand, at Michigan is about
30 feet, at Chicago about 75 feet, at Harvard about 65 feet and at Yale
about 30 feet. The final capacity of the stand will be in the neighborhood
of 52,000, as against 31,000 at Chicago, 46,500 at Harvard, and 61,500 at
Yale, while the cost will be $275,000. The completed Chicago stand will
cost about $450,000, while Harvard's, which is not yet entirely complete,
will be $500,000.

UNIVERSITY ORGANIZATION*

This subject has become in recent years one of intense interest. In
most utterances on the subject the prominent feature is the statement that
our universities are undemocratic, that they are monarchical institutions in
a democratic countr)'. This criticism takes various forms. When a uni-
versity president speaks, the shortcomings of the university are due to the
fact that the governing board are ignorant, shallow-minded, arrogant and
headstrong ; that they insist upon deciding matters beyond their knowledge
and will not be guided by the president. When a university professor
speaks it is the university presidency which is at fault. Autocracy, blind-
ness, willfulness, prejudice, partiality, lofty-mindedness, oratorical ability,
money-getting talents, piety and many other virtues and vices are ascribed
to our presidents, but in the minds of nearly all writers the presidency is
an unsatisfactory tool. When an outsider speaks, both president and gov-
erning board are parts of a vicious organization.

Let us grant that there is much truth in this. Boards may be unwise ;
the presidency may be unequal to its responsibilities and opportunities. Yet
there is a third point of view, a more ifundamental consideration. In the
American University, as in the Russian political system, the chief difficulty
is not with the autocrat, but with the bureaucrat. In my opinion, we can
not go much farther astray than baldly to lay the shortcomings of our uni-
versities upon the president. As for the presidency, it is part of a great
system ; the president is the unfortunate occupant of an office.

Let us see how the matter stands. Any large institution such as one
of our universities, in order to be successful, must have general aims or
policies, must have an organization to carry them out, and must secure at
once the successful operation of each of its subdivisions in its own sphere
and the co-operation of each of these in the larger ends of the whole. The
president is given, nominally at least, the responsibility of directing this
organization in general and the right, when necessity arises, to intervene in
the conduct of any of the parts in order to make them efficient and to adjust
their relations with the remainder of the institution. Can. any president do
this under present conditions?

To bring about efficient work for desirable ends in any large institution
certain things are necessary. First, a knowledge of what are the desirable
aims or ideals for that institution and of how these ideals should be adjusted
to the conditions of human life and to the life of the particular community
from time to time. Second, a knowledge on the part of the executive of
the workings of all parts of the institution and of the abilities of each mem-
ber of the staff. Third, the possession of actual power by the executive to
secure the co-operation of all parts in whatever is for the common welfare.
This is true no matter whether the common welfare is found in the closest
centralization or in the greatest freedom of individual action, no matter

I9I4] UNIVERSITY ORGANIZATION 21

whether the executive is a president or a committee or takes some other
form. Our universities must be organized, must have common ends and
must exercise executive power, if the only end of that power be to secure
anarchy. It is my purpose to inquire what is wrong with the present organ-
ization that our universities should work so badly and that individuals
should suflfer so in the process.

Where does a university get its ideals or policies? Necessarily, they
become the possession of the institution through the expression of ideas or
opinions by members of the faculty and student body and through the
acaimulation of such ideas in the form known as traditions. Individuals in
the university, whether president, instructors or students, necessarily fur-
nish the ideas out of which common aims are constructed and in accordance
with which old aims are adjusted to new conditions. Is there at the present
time any adequate means by which the ideas of individuals can be made
available for the common good ? Two illustrations will answer the question
in part. The head of a university department called together his entire
staff including student assistants to discuss the organization of teaching
with a view to improving the arrangement and content of the courses of
study. The whole matter was discussed at two successive meetings, the
professors talking over various plans without coming to any satisfactory
conclusion. Instructors and assistants had been asked to think over the
matter and at the second meeting each one in turn was called upon for sug-
gestions. One assistant had a plan entirely different from anything that
had been suggested. He outlined it and showed how it would improve the
teaching and bring about a better correlation in the work of the department.
The men of professorial rank criticized the plan severely and the young man
was made to feel that he was presumptuous in proportion as his plan was
chimerical. After a rather long interval a third meeting was called. The
head of the department announced that a plan had been devised, and pro-
ceeded to outline the identical plan which had been proposed by the assistant.
It remained in effect for several years. Absolutely no hint of credit or rec-
ognition was ever given to the young man. Again, an instructor arose in
general faculty meeting in an arts college in a state university and discusi^ed
a pending question at some length and with much cogency. His friends
were filled with apprehension and one of them finally succeeded in signalling
to the speaker to desist. He was afterwards informed by the dean that men
below the rank of assistant professor were not expected to debate questions
in the facuky. Instances might be multiplied to show that great difficulties
stand in the way of the ideas of young men finding expression or receiving
consideration in our universities. It is a well-known fact that in many de-
partments the young men never know what plans are afoot until their
duties are assigned them. And yet the young men are the only ones who
can offer any new ideas to their institutions. Let it not be thought that the
writer has any personal interest in this aspect of the question. He has
passed the time when he can expect to produce any neiv ideas. Whatever
new ideas he might have contributed to the universities with which he has
been connected are lost forever, — unless indeed, ear is still given to what

he might have said years ago. Of course, that is precisely what our mode
of organization means. The university forbids a young man to speak until
he becomes a professor. Then if he has not forgotten the ideas which came
to him in the days of his youth and enthusiasm, or if the time for their
application has not long gone by, the institution is willing to listen to him.
That ensures conservatism, — but not progress. It means that the university
never adjusts its ideals to the times but is forever denying itself the infor-
mation which its individual members could supply.

If the university is slow and inefficient in securing information as
to what should be its aims and policies, what about the sources of
information for the executive as to how those policies are being carried
out? The president depends for his information first upon the deans of
colleges and schools, and second, upon the heads of departments. He de-
pends upon these men also for executive functions under his direction. The
president must depend upon these men for information, since he can not by
any possibility know all the details by his own observation. Neither can he
go personally to all individuals for information. In general the president
is equally under the necessity of following the advice of his heads of depart-
ments, since otherwise he would lose their confidence and his only source
of information. The president instead of being the autocratic monster that
he is. depicted, is in an almost pitiable situation. Unless he be a man of
altogether extraordinary energy and strength of purpose, he is wholly at
the mercy of his heads of departments. So far as the heads of departments
are honest, wise and possessed of ideals for the common good the president
is fortunate, and nothing that I may say in this talk can be construed as a
criticism of such men. But heads of departments are endowed with human
nature, and it is well known that they exhibit it in the conduct of their
departments.

In one case a department of chemistry was equipped with a great
amount of expensive glassware and analytical apparatus of which the head
of the department did not know the uses, while the students' tables were
almost devoid of ordinary reagent bottles. The younger men in the depart-
ment were unable for a long time to secure the ordinary equipment needed.
In other cases men who were drawing full professors' salaries have taken
their time for outside professional work or for dealing in real estate, coal
or gas, neglecting their teaching and imposing extra work on the instructors
to the detriment of both instructors and students. A head of department
may carry on for years policies which are not approved by a single member
of his staff; may absent himself from all teaching whatever; may neglect
to do any research work or contribute anything to the advancement of his
science; may pursue constantly a policy of selfish material aggrandizement
for which the department suffers both in the esteem of the university and
in the decrease of scientific work which the members of staff can do ; may
deliberately sacrifice the interests of the students to his personal ambitions,
and may in these ways cause constant friction and great waste of energy
throughout the college — all this while maintaining a pretense, or even a
belief, that he is a most public-spirited and useful member of the faculty.

The head may conduct his department in such a way as to make research
impossible and even drive men out of his department because they do re-
search, all the while that he himself talks of the importance of research.
Heads may appoint to high positions men who have given no evidence what-
ever of their qualifications for the woiit proposed. Heads of departments
and deans have been known to use their offices to secure advancement for
their personal friends and are able to sidetrack valuable proposals for the
common good which threaten to compete with their own interests.

The head of a department enjoys a remarkable liberty in the conduct
of his department and in the performance of his individual duties. He may
suppress the individualism of his staff members, ignore any suggestions
which they may make, and dismiss them if they insist upon their ideas. He
may falsify the reports as to the teaching and other work done by himself
and by members of his staff. If subordinate members of the staff have
different ideas as to the conduct of the departments they are vigorously
overruled by the head, and if any question of bad policy or of injustice is
brought to the stage of investigation by the president, that officer is gov-
erned by the principle that all matters of testimony must be construed by him
in a light as favorable as possible to the head of the department. The pres-
ident is bound to do this because he is dependent upon his heads of depart-
ments for information, advice and executive assistance. The "heads of
departments" thus become a system which involves the president and from
the toils of which he can not easily extricate himself. It is a matter of com-
mon knowledge that in some departments no member of staff is asked for
his opinions or is encouraged to hold or express independent views, that
younger members of the faculty commonly dare not express themselves
publicly or go to the president or dean in matters in which they differ from
the heads of their departments, and that generally the department head
assumes that the decision of any question resides with the "responsible
head,'* regardless of the views of his subordinates. There is no way in
which the members of staff can influence the policy of their department,
there is no channel by which the facts can be brought effectively to the
notice of the president or governing board, and there is no assurance in our
present form of organization that the welfare of the staff or their opinions
as to the welfare of the university would receive consideration if opposed
to the desires of the department head. All this is expressed in common
university parlance by saying that the head regards the department as his
personal property and the members of staff as his hired men.

I believe that a truer statement of the case is this. Some years ago
each subject was taught by a single professor. The growth in the number
of students made it necessary to appoint new instructors to assist the pro-
fessor. At first these assistants were very subordinate in years and experi-
ence and it was only natural that the responsibility for the work of the
department should remain with the professor. With further growth of the
institution the department staff has come to include several instructors and
professors, each of whom has a primary interest and responsibility in the
welfare of the department and of the institution. Instead of this being

recognized, the full powers of the department have been left in the hands
of the original head. These heads have in consequence come into control of
these sources of information to the executive, have jealously guarded their
great powers, and are able to direct departmental and university policies
through holding the president in ignorance and their subordinates in con-
tempt. In other words, university control has come to be vested in a system
of irresponsible heads of departments. This was what was meant in the
beginning by saying that the difficulty lies not with the autocrat, but with
the bureaucrat. More than one well-meaning university president has
recognized the situation, admitted his powerlessness at critical periods and
has sought to extricate himself and his university by having recourse to
private interviews and by appointment of advisory committees.

If the only evils of this system were that it entails upon the president
great difficulties of university management and results in the misdirection
of department affairs and the waste of material resources, it would not be
so intolerable. Its more serious effects are that it lowers the efficiency and
the moral and spiritual tone of the whole institution, that it wastes the time
and energy of whole staffs in order that the head may take his ease or
satisfy his ambitions. Moreover, taking away from faculty members the
responsibility for the conception and execution of university policies is the
best possible way to break down the practical efficiency of these men and
to reduce the college professor by a process of natural selection to the
impractical, inexperienced hireling that he is popularly supposed to be.
Whether this is in part the cause of the wretched teaching which is done
in our universities and of the lack of standards of work and of character
for the student, I leave you to judge.

There is a second unfortunate feature in our university organization
to which I will give only brief attention. This is the prominence of the
colleges and schools and the sharp boundaries between them. The colleges
are not based upon any natural subdivision of knowledge, but upon practical
or technical grounds. Each college has in view the esteem of its own
profession and has little sympathy with other colleges which make up the
university. The ver>^ existence of the colleges creates special interests and
produces strife which is in no way related to the welfare of the student or
the general public. Teaching and equipment — apparatus, supplies, library
— are duplicated, the natural relations of fields of knowledge are subordin-
ated to the practical application of specific facts and laws, college walls
and college interests intervene to prevent the student from following co-
related subjects in which he is in-terested, professional interests and pro-
fessional ideals begin early to narrow the student's vision and to substitute
professional tradition and practice for sound judgment and an open mind.
All this is unfortunate. The professions should foster but not confine their
apprentices. A student preparing for professional work should have the
advantage of the traditions and practices prevailing in the profession, but
those traditions and practices should not constitute limitations on his oppor-
tunities, his enterprise or his initiative.

A third evil tendency in pur universities is the growing complexity of
administrative organization. Good results cannot be secured by relying

chiefly on a system of checks and safeguards. These cannot replace cap-
ability, honesty and a genuine interest in the university's welfare. Checks
and safeguards can at best only prevent some abuses, while they certainly
place obstacles in the way of men who would do honest work. It is of doubt-
ful valive to set a sheep dog to keep cats from killing young chickens —
especially when the main business of the imiversity is not to raise either
sheep or chickens, but to rear men. There is a constant danger that good
men will be obliged to kotow to administrative officials^ who ought to be
servants but who proclaim themselves masters. To appoint capable men
and to place confidence in their concordant judgment would at once prevent
the abuses and secure the desirable ends.

FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES UPON WHICH UNIVERSITY ORGANIZATION SHOULD

REST

The functions of a university are three. First, to bring together
teachers and students under such conditions that the whole field of know-
ledge is opened to the student and he is offered competent and reliable
advice and assistance in his studies. The second function arises from the .
responsibility for the competent direction of the student's work. The uni-
versity must examine the foundations of its authority by making original
investigations to test, correct and enlarge the existing body of knowledge.
No institution which neglects to prosecute research in as many fields as
practical conditions permit, is worthy of the name of university. The third
function of a university is to make its store of knowledge practically avail-
able to its community and patrons and to stimulate in the members and the
community an interest in the further acquisition of knowledge.

The university is thus concerned with knowledge and its applications.
University organization exists for the purpose of securing suitable conditions
for research and teaching, for the acquisition and the application of knowl-
edge. Certain of the conditions of successful work in a university may be
laid down without argument. First, thaft each individual instructor or stu-
dent should enjoy freedom and bear responsibility in his work, i. e., he
should be judged by his achievements. Second, the recognition of the facts
that dealing with knowledge is the central function of the university ; that
all organization must contribute to this end; that the teacher, the student
and the research worker are the sole persons of primary value in the
university ; that all administrative officers are accessory machinery ; that all
organization should spring from those primarily engaged in the university's
work ; and that all authority should rest with these and with the community
which supports the institution. This organic relation of the actual workers
to the university government is at once a natural right and the foundation
of that personal interest and enthusiasm which are necessary to successful
endeavor. Note that I do not say that the instructor and research worker
should be made to feel that he has an interest in the university organization
and a part in university policies through his advice and so forth, but that
the teacher and research worker is in the nature of things the actual source

of authority in the university, conditioned only by the relations of the univer-
sity to its community.

What, now, is the proper form of university organization, and how can
it be approached in our state universities?

The governing board should represent both the community served and
the university. The people of the state furnish the financial and spiritual
support for the university and receive the benefits of its work. The sup-
port can be withheld whenever the returns are unsatisfactory. The interests
of the people do not require to be protected by the governing board. The
members of the university faculties contribute their lives and receive in
return a living wage. It is only with the greatest difficulty that they can
withdraw their investment in the enterprise. They furnish also the plans
of work and the expert direction. The nature of the work is such that it
is essential that the staff should have a free hand in executing its plans
and should be responsible to the people for its achievements. It seems
clear that a governing board composed of three members appointed by the
governor from the state at large, three members elected by university fac-
ulties from their own number, and the president, would at least not err
on the side of giving too great autonomy to the university. It is clear that
complete autonomy would carry with it the danger of losing touch with
the university's constituency, while the presence of an equal representation
from the university and the state would free the faculty permanently from
the stigma of control by "non-scholar trustees." Those present well know,
however, that boards of the existing type may show an excellent spirit and
judgment.

The internal organization of the university should have reference solely
to efficiency in teaching and research. The organization should be created
by the members of the staff by virtue of their sovereign powers within
the institution. The first natural subdivision of the university is that into
departments based upon the relations of the fields of knowledge. The
process of subdivision of subjects and creation of new departments has gone
too far and must be reversed. Under the old order of things the only way
for a man of parts to gain recognition and influence which he was capable
of using, was to become the head of a department or the dean of a college.
This accounts for the creation of many new departments and schools for
which there was no need. Administration could be simplified, duplication
of work, apparatus, books and supplies could be avoided, and a closer
correlation ,and a better spirit and more stimulus to scholarly work could
be secured by the creation of larger departments based on close relation-
ship of subject-matter.

The staff of such large departments might number ten, twenty or more
men. In the nature of things, the organization within such a department is
based upon the personal interest of each member of the staff in the success
and welfare of the department, and its object should be to place the resources
of the department in the fullest degree at the command of the student and
to facilitate research. These things can be secured only where there is
harmony among the staff and where the ideas of the staff are carried out

in the administration of the department. Harmony of ideals and executive
representation can be secured only by the election both of new members of
the staff and of the administrative head of the department. New members
of staff should be nominated to the president by those who will be their
colleagues and who are best able to judge of their fitness for their places.
The president will of course actively share the responsibility of appoint-
ments. Pronations should be recommended by the chairman and approved
by a university committee on promotions.

All important business should be done in staff meetings. The chair-
man should administer department affairs according to the decisions and by
the authority of the staff and should represent the staff in relations with
other departments. Within the department there should be the greatest
practicable freedom of the individual in teaching and research, together with
publicity of results. Subdivision of the field covered by the department,
organization and assignment of work would be done in staff conference.
Publicity r^arding the number of elective students, percentage of students
passed and failed, average grades given, research work accomplished, and so
forth, would furnish opportunity for comparison, friendly rivalry, self-
criticism and improvement of the work of each teacher. The first step to-
ward improvement of organization of state universities would be the organ-
ization of department staffs to bear the responsibilities and to direct the
work of the department through an elected chairman. The second step
would be the gradual combination of smaller into larger departments.

The next important step would be the breaking down of the boundaries
between colleges on the side of teaching and investigation, making each
student perfectly free to study where and what he will, subject only to
the regulations of departments and to the means of gaining his own ends.
Some present schools and colleges would take again their proper places as
departments, the others would be dissolved.

So far as the present colleges serve a useful purpose, their place would
be taken by faculties for the supervision of professional and degree courses.
Each such faculty should be made up of representatives of all departments
which may offer work toward the given degree, such representatives to act
under instructions from the staffs of their respective departments. These
faculties should prescribe requirements for entrance and for graduation, but
should have no control of finances or of appointments. They should exer-
cise only an advisory function in regard to the election of studies or the
student's use of his time. Any faculty might, if it was deemed advisable,
prescribe final examinations over the whole course of study, or the pre-
sentation of a thesis, and so forth. Thus we should have an A.B. faculty,
an IX.B. faculty, an M.D. faculty, and so on, each safeguarding the tradi-
tions which surround its degree or the standards which should be upheld
in the profession, but each giving full opportunity to the various departments
to place before the student new materials, methods and ideals ; and giving
to the student opportunity to try his powers and extend his acquaintance
beyond the usual limits laid down by the traditions of his degree or his chosen
profession. This mode of organization would also make it as easy as pos-

sible for the student to change his course in case he found that his choice
of a profession was unsuited to his individual talents.

In such an organization the university senate might have somewhat
enlarged powers and more detailed duties. The administrative functions
now exercised by the faculties and deans of colleges would in part vanish,
in larger part be transferred to the several departmental staffs and in part
devolve upon the senate either in the first instance or through reference
from departments. The senate would continue to be a court of appeal in
cases of dispute between faculties or departments. The establishment of
new degrees or degree-courses would require action of the senate, and
sweeping changes in any curriculum or the membership of any faculty
should have the approval of the senate. For example, the university could
not establish a new school of naval architecture or of mental healing or of
colonial administration, each leading to its special degree, without the
sanction of a body representing the whole university. Neither could the
faculty of arts radically change the character of the course leading to the
A.B. degree, either by the ingestion or the extrusion of a large group of
departments, without such action being subject to review by the university
senate. More need not be said on this phase of the subject. It seems clear
that with the greater freedom of action on the part of students and de-
partments, with special faculties laying down regulations for the various
(iegree-courses, with the elimination of rivalries and strife growing directly
out of the organization by colleges, the problems of internal correlation and
control would be greatly simplified and could readily be cared for in a senate
organized very much as ours is at present.

Simplification in university work and administration is the crying need
next to independence and responsibility of the members of the faculty. The
endless red tape of business administration could be largely done away with
by the logical completion of the budget system. The budget having been
made by the governing board, each department should be perfectly free to
expend its own quota of funds by vote of its staff without supervision or
approval of anybody — and should be held responsible for the results se-
cured from year to year. Nobody can know so well how money should be
expended as the staff who are to use the things purchased, no one knows
so well where to get things or how to get them promptly when needed,
none feels so directly and keenly the effects of misuse of money, none will
so carefully guard its resources as the department itself. The dangers of
duplication will be set aside by the better correlation of departments already
suggested. In establishing common storerooms, purchasing agents and the
like, the first and chief step should be to ask of the members of the staff
throughout the university, how can the administration help you in your
work through such agencies as these, instead of thinking how these agencies
can remove from the departments the ultimate control of their work. Time
and money may be wasted at a frightful rate through fear to place respon-
sibility and confidence where they belong — a fear which is well-founded
on our present system of irresponsible heads of departments.

Simplification in the administration of teaching would be favored by
the dissolution of the colleges and the setting free of the elective system
under a few simple regulations as to the combination of elementary and
advanced courses and of major and cognate work which would be neces-
sary for an academic degree, and as to the prescribed curriculum in a pro-
fessional course. What is needed is fewer regulations and better teaching ;
fewer snap courses, fewer substitutions and special dispensations ; less care
for the poor student and more food for the good student ; less interest in
sending forth graduates and more measuring up of students against stand-
ards of honesty, industry and self-judgment.

Finally, the presidency. Shall the president be elected by the faculty ?
Shall his actions be subject to review by the senate? Shall he have a veto
power over the senate? Shall his duties be limited to those of a gentleman,
orator and representative of university culture, or to those of the business
agent and manager? The discussion of these questions seems to the writer
to be of minor importance. With such a governing board and such an
internal organization as has been briefly outlined, it can scarcely be doubted
that the president will be representative of his faculty or that he could se-
cure intelligent action from the board. Nor would it be difficult for the
president to be a leader in whatever ways he was fitted for leadership or
in whatever matters leadership was required. It seems to me that the presi-
dency should be controlled by imwritten rather than by written laws. What
is essential is that the university have a strong executive; stroi^ in the
discovery and application of right principles, strong in his reliance upon the
consent and the support of the governed and strong in the execution of
their ideals. The remedy for our evils is not to object to a strong executive,
but to remove the necessity for an arbitrary executive ; not to cry out for
anarchy, but to introduce self-government.

Allow me to recapitulate. Our universities are laboring under a bureau-
cratic form of government in which the initiative rests chiefly with the
heads of departments, in which there is a constant struggle for power
among the bureau heads, in which these same heads are the chief source of
information and advice to the executive, in which most of the faculty have
no voice in framing policies, and in which — at its worst — the student is
concerned only to be counted and the public only to be milked. The ex-
treme of degradation is reached when research is wholly neglected and
teaching is regarded as only the excuse for material aggrandizement. The
bad state of aff^airs which we see every now and then in this or that de-
partment or college in all our universities cannot be regarded as the free
choice of any average group of men. I cannot conceive of any of these
things being voted by members of a staff. These conditions are the result
of arbitrary power placed in the hands of single men without check or
publicity. Such a system always breeds dishonesty and crime. The remedy
is to recognize the primary interest of every member of the staff and to
establish representative government in the university. On the whole and
in the long run the combined judgment of the members of the staff of any
department is sufe to be better than that of any individual. Self-govern-

ment stimulates individual initiative and calls forth ideas for the common
good. The enjoyment of freedom and responsibility will make of our
faculty morally strong and practically efficient men, and will call into the
profession capable men, men robust in intellect and imagination, instead of
the weaklings who now barter their souls for shelter from the perils of a
competitive business world.

It may be true in a legal sense that the state through the board of
regents now hires the members of the university faculty. But men to do
university work cannot be hired. Those of the faculties who now do
university work do it not because they are paid living wages, but because
they love the work. It has been one oif the great fallacies of human history
to suppose that workmen can be hired. When you hire or enslave a man
you secure only mechanical service. The world's work cannot be done by
hired muscle alone, but requires personal interest, moral character and
entire manhood. Slaves survive in their pyramids, their temples and their
papyri, where their masters have perished. The successful and progressive
civilizations of today are founded on the freedom and self-satisfaction of
the individual. The most acute problems of modem society arise out of
the hiring of men to do work which they would much prefer to do for
themselves and would do better for themselves. These things bear their
lessons for universities, if we will heed them. Freedom of speech and
complete self government are necessary to the best interests of a university.
A whole staff is together more capable than any one man. Suppression of
staff members who speak without authority of the head is the suppression
of truth and initiative. It has resulted and must result in the selection of
weak men for the faculty and in narrowness, bigotry and provincialism in
the institution. Self-government will draw strong men into the faculty,
will stimulate initiative, will make possible and encourage progressive ad-
ministration, and will brii^ to mental endeavor on the part of both student
and teacher the freshness of the morning air, the pursuit of a goal of one's
own choosii^, and satisfaction in the achievement of one's ideals.

I0I.1] BACK FROM THE WAR ZONE 31

BACK FROM THE WAR ZONE

Many members of the Faculty of the University found themselves
within the zone of war in Europe on August i when hostilities commenced.
Though many of them bring back interesting stories of their experiences,
there were few who were seriously inconvenienced. Many, however, found
difficulty in obtaining ready cash, and in some cases had to accept steerage
passage home. Below we print the impressions of a few members of the
Faculty on their summer experiences.

Among those who were caught abroad was Eh*. Reuben Peterson,
who had attended a convention of medical men in his specialty in
Germany. One of the interesting facts of his stay was the urgent
warning which he received some time before hostilities commenced
from some of his medical confreres in Germany. Professor H. P.
Thieme, of the Department of French, who spent last year in Paris, was
particularly impressed by the unrest throughout the year in France which
was quite perceptible as soon as one came into intimate contact with the
French people. Everywhere an impression that war was impending was
evident, and there was also an obvious endeavor to enlist the sympathies
of English-speaking people. Not in the least interesting of the phenomena
of this period was an evident German propaganda carried on in Paris dur-
ing the year, not only in business but in literature, art and music, endured,
but not welcomed by the true Frenchman.

Professor Thieme was in I.ucerne with his family when the war broke
out, but was able to reach Paris in time to obtain a comfortable passage
home. Professor F. N. Scott, who left Ann Arbor early in the summer,
was in Germany at the outbreak of the war, and returned early in October.
Professor A. A. Stanley spent practically the whole of the summer in
England and Scotland. Professor C. H. Van Tyne, who spent last year
in France as one of the associate lecturers of the American Foundation,
corroborates Professor Thieme*s impressions. Professor John O. Reed,
who has been living abroad on account of ill health for the past two years,
was in Germany at the time the war broke out. He and Mrs. Reed have
remained, and are now in Jena. Mr. Rene Talamon, instructor in French,
who was spending his honeymoon this summer in France, was called to the
front, and is now sous les drapeaux.

Other members of the Faculty who returned, with interesting accounts
of their experiences are Registrar A. G. Hall, Professor W. H. Butts,
Assistant Dean in the Department of Engineering, Professor J. P. Bird,
Secretary of the Department of Engineering, Dr. F. C. Newcombe, Pro-
fessor of Botany, Professor and Mrs. J. F. Winter of the Department of
Greek, H. R. Cross, Professor of Fine Arts, E. R. Turner, Professor of
History and Mr. F. E. Robbins of the Department of Greek. Professor Wil-
liam D. Henderson, of the Department of Physics and Mrs. Henderson, and
Dr. Elsie Seelye Pratt, of the University Health Service.

Professor Anton Friedrich Greiner, of the Engineering Department,
who is still a German citizen, was at his home in Germany at the outbreak

of the war. He was fortunate in being able to secure passage on the
Kaiser Wilhelm, which reached New York after an exciting chase by
English and French cruisers. While German citizens holding permanent
positions in this country may not be pressed into service, it is possible that
if he had not been able to leave, he would have been called upon to serve
in the army.

A number of students were touring through Europe, but were able
to reach home without any serious trouble. Bruce D. Bromley, Pontiac,
'14, with Edwin C. Wilson, '15, Detroit, had just completed a bicycle trip
through Belgium and Holland when war was declared, but succeeded in
reaching Paris, and securing passage. H. Beach Carpenter, '14, *i6/,
Rockford, 111., and Morris A. Milligan, '14, Bradford, Pa., were in London.
A party composed of Carlton H. Jenks, '15, Port Huron, Wilbur S. David-
son, '15, Port Huron, Howard M. Warner, '16, Farmington, and West-
cott T. Smith, 'i^e, Port Huron, who were touring Europe on their wheels,
had perhaps the most interesting experience. They were in northern France
when the war began, and found themselves in danger of being held in
France while the mobilization of the French army was proceeding, with
the danger also that they might be suspected of being spies. Retracing their
steps, they were able to purchase in one of the larger towns, four American
flags, which they strapped to their handle bars, and after several curious
experiences, succeeded in clearing the danger zone. Among other students
abroad were John T. Naylon, 15^, Detroit, and Francis T. Russell, '15,
Grand Rapids, who was traveling through Europe on his motor cycle.

Paul Scott Mowrer, 'o5-'o8, has been appointed London correspondent
for the Chicago Daily Nezvs, going to London from Paris, where he has
been the French correspondent. Mr. Mowrer had considerable experience
during the Balkan war, when he reported events at the front.

Professor Morris P. Tilley, of the English Department, had made all
preparations to leave for Europe when war was declared, having obtained
leave of absence for the present year. He now plans to spend the year in
the east, doing research work in the Hbraries there.

SOME PERSONAL EXPERIENCES

Professor James P. Bird

Note, The following article was written by Professor Bird while en
route home, and was published in The Detroit Saturday Night for Septem-
ber 12. He was a member of a party of twelve who found themselves
at Lucerne, Switzerland, at the outbreak of the war. They left August 11,
traveling through France, and spent a fortnight in England and Scotland
before they sailed for Montreal.

Three days out on the North Atlantic, with a sea too calm to be interest-
ing even to the most sensitive, and with only a very limited number of Ger-
man dreadnoughts stationed along the skyline, wars and rumors of wars
eliminated by a censored wireless, it is difficult indeed to realize that the
European nightmare is a reality, in spite of what our eyes have seen from
one end to the other of three nations in the throes of a world war.

I9T4] BACK FROM THE WAR ZONE 33

When the storm broke, we had just reached Lucerne from Italy, where
apparently such a thing as a general conflict was not even dreamed of.
Also at Lucerne, tickets were sold on August i to Amsterdam via Heidel-
berg or Strassburg. On August 2 the way was closed. It is very significant
that on July 2J German officers attending, for example, the summer session
at the University of Neuchatel, and presiunably at other Swiss and at
French institutions, were ordered home at the beginning of a veiled mo-
bilization.

(This was three days before Germany called on Russia to stop fnobilis-
ing, and four days before she broke off diplomatic relations. — The Editor.)

Switzerland has been called the nation without a language, a navy or
an army. A week sufficed to place in the field practically every able-bodied
man, fully equipped from tip to toe. Every corner, every gateway, every
public building of Berne had its soldier with bayonet set. Through all the
principal streets, by night or day, was heard the measured tread of cwn-
pany after company, off for the frontier accompanied by army trains with
artillery and stores, leaving only the brave though tearful women, the child-
ren and the aged to bring in the crops and attend to the business of life.

Business, for the most part, was at a standstill. All available money
was needed by the state, so that American travelers' checks could not be
cashed imder any circumstance. Neither would the suspicious storekeeper
accept a check for merchandise. The only Swiss with faith undaunted was
the innkeeper, who would not see us starve and took our checks rather than
nothing.

The American consul's office, with two loquacious assistants, was the
busiest place in town. The invariable advice given was, "Stay where you
are; it is dangerous to leave; the government is making plans." We stayed
at Berne six days while the mobilization was going on, then the evening of
August 1 1 we decided it was get out then or stay all winter, so, armed with
passports, at 6 the next morning we started our invasion of France via
Geneva, the only way open.

We crossed the border at Belgarde, where one poor fellow who had
left his passport at the hotel, 12 hours away, was sent sorrowfully back.
The next day the track we had just come over was reported torn up for
se\'eral miles, while we continued on our long journey of 39 hours to Paris,
a trip ordinarily made in 12. All the trains of Europe were under govern-
ment control, and ordinary passengers liable to be set down at any time to
make room for soldiers. No merchandise of any kind was shipped for
weeks. Fortunately for us, the mobilization for the moment was north-
ward, and our greatest inconvenience was the necessity of long stops for
orders at every station. Added to the uncertainty of continuing our jour-
ney was the excitement of scores of trains rushing toward the Alsatian
frontier, a whole train of artillery, for example, then a train of cavalry,
eight horses, four abreast, facing each other in each tiny four-wheeled box
car, the men on the straw between them.

A most interesting thing was to see the trains of wagons and autos of
every description hurrying to the front. Autos which were not offered were

seized, autobusses and delivery trucks by the hundred from the great grocery
and dry goods firms of Paris were loaded on promiscuously.

At Dijon we saw a large detachment of Algerian zouaves, varying in
complexion from a deep tan to a Higgins eternal shade of black, imported
from Africa to lend their aid, unwilling aid, it would seem, to the cause of
their adoptive country. A somewhat parallel case would be the importation
of Filipino troops to fight with ours in an imaginary struggle against
Canada.

We reached Paris late at night, no longer gay Paris, but terribly
desolate; no taxis at the station, no street car, no autobus running, the
metro service interrupted since 7 p. m., and all restaurants and cafes closed
at the same hour. Paris was verily deserted, the majority of the stores
closed ; as in Switzerland, all able-bodied men between the ages of 19 and
47 either gone or going in a day or two.

Can one imagine the grand boulevards at Paris hopelessly deserted be-
fore 10 p. m., the hour when they are usually just beginning to teem with
reckless pleasure seekers? On the Rue de Rivoli, one of the busiest thor-
oughfares, at 9 o'clock there was not a vehicle and hardly a person to be
seen. This outward calm was indicative of the feeling generally noted.
The temper of the great city was wonderfully even. Those who had gone,
had gone with joy, but with no levity, and those who remained were fully
conscious of the terrible situation. On all sides one heard, "The struggle
may be long, but in the end we shall utterly crush them." Reports of vio-
lence and rioting in the French capital were absolutely without truth or
foundation. Paris was as one from the Faubourg St. Antoine to the Pal-
ace of the Elysees.

The French people, as the English people, believe that they are fighting
for self-preservation; that the only hope for final peace in Europe is the
annihilation of the military power of Prussia, and they are willing and eager
to give their lives if need be for the future of Europe.

The awful fact of a general conflict came home to us fully at Boulogne
while waiting for a boat to England. The first British troops were arriving
that night, and for hours the splendid fellows marched by our hotel ; infantry
and artillery, Scots in their kilts with bagpipes playing, the English in
khaki, with fife and drum, and bugle corps.

The reception they had from the French was a rousing one, hand
clasps exchanged as they hurried on, words of good cheer in a foreign
toi^ue, from the crowds along the line of march, while now and then one
braver than the rest would seize and greet a cheering maiden with a re-
sounding smack. We were thrilled through and through as we thought of
these thousands going to fight in company with foreigners on foreign soil
against a common foe; going gladly and singing as they marched along,
**It's a long, long way to Tipperary."

Here was visible none of the grim determination seen on the faces and
heard in the voices of the Swiss and French. At Berne, for example, two or
three of us about to cross a square where army wagons were standing,
were met by a levelled bayonet.

**Woiild yon run me through if I passed ?*' said I with a smile.

*'Ja Wohl/' was the stout reply, with never a smile. Needless to say,
we didn't pass.

But beyond the gay exterior of the English lads and of the bonnie
Scots, no doubt was found the same determination and the same or a greater
bravery and daring.

And when we came to England we found, in high places and in low, a
wonderful display of resolution to do or die.

The world knows how loyally the men of Britain, from Inverness to
Land's End, responded to the call to arms. Also the territorials, the local
militia, thrilled with the same spirit, many — too many of them — men with
wives and little children, are volunteering.

Just one example: In old Bannockbum, out of 400 territorials 384
have left their all of their own free will for their love of the Empire and
their king. The same, no doubt, is true throughout the United Kingdom.
They, with the French, have come to feel that the .whole civilized world
has a common enemy in the present policy of Germany, and that the future
peace of Europe can be purchased only at the price of thousands and tens
of thousands of precious lives. Whatever way one's sympathies may ex-
tend, he is overwhelmed by the patriotism and bravery of these splendid
fellows, who dare to die that liberty may live.

Professor C H. Van Tyne

Like an obedient slave of the lamp when the editor of The Alumnus
commands, I hear and obey. He says I am a refugee, and must tell such of
my experiences as will throw light on the present war problem. The
most vivid of my impressions on escaping from war-torn Europe is the
sense of relief from the terrible depression which hangs over one even in
England. There you cannot escape the awful fascination of it. In London
the newsboys din it in your ears. At night the seach lights sweep the skies
in search for Zeppelins and aeroplanes. On every square and in every
park the new recruits are being drilled. Take an express from London to
the sea, and you will be hurried past camp after camp, where cavalry and
artillery go through ceaseless evolutions. If you enter prohibited areas
you must show your alien papers. Even the magic word American does
not save you. At the seaside you see the transports gather in the
evening, chaperoned by a destroyer or a submarine and in the morning they
have flown. In a few days the red cross ships begin to come in and then
the papers give out the thrilling stories told by the wounded soldiers in
the hospitals. At night the harbor is swept by the ominous rays of the
search lights. Rimior too is always busy with stories of mines sown just
off the harbor, of the periscope of a German submarine seen by a fishing
boat, or of a Zeppelin preying upon ships in the channel. There is no escape,
no respite. You read, think, dream war, and the sense of depression grows
from day to day. All the horrors of it are not 150 miles from you and the
spirits are weighed down by its proximity.

The chief thing that my personal experience in Europe during this last
year enables me to say about the war is that it was brooding over Europe

every moment of that time. When I first arrived, the French and German
papers were bitterly attacking each other on the subject of the French
"foreign legion." France was accused of abusing the German soldiers in
it, and French papers indignantly denied 'every allegation. Then came the
indiscreet speech of the Greek king, ascribing Greek military success to
German training. As French officers had trained them, the Gallic press was
in a rage, and the German journals aroused and taunted it as they well
knew how. Then came the Saveme affair in Alsace-Lorraine, and nation-
al hate was displayed to its utmost. Then a German paper accused Russia
of hastening its preparation for war, which Russian papers denied, and
French papers criticized the German war mania. Threats and menaces were
hurled back and forth across the borders, and an outsider could see that
international nerves were at a very high tension. And yet men went on
hugging that old delusion that peace was secure because of the great arma-
ments, and because the interlacing of industrial, economic and financial
bonds made war unthinkable! Yet all that was needed was the murder of
the Grand Duke, the. insane folly of Austria, a War Lord too arrogant to
exercise the necessary international amenities, and the world was in the
midst of the supreme tragedy of all the ages.

A year in France convinced me that Frenchmen did not want war.
While giving the Harvard Foimdation lectures in the French provincial
universities, I visited nearly every part of France. I talked not only with
academic men, but with shopkeepers, workmen, with everybody who would
listen to my wretched French, and the universal answer to my query as to
whether France wished a war of revenge for the loss of Alsace-Lorraine
was "No." The only reservation was that if France should be dragged into
war the lost provinces must be regained. Newspaper and periodicaJ litera-
ture revealed the same attitude. War was too dreadful to be ventured upon
for revenge and after all a nation cannot live to avenge the wrongs of a
former generation. The universal desire was for peace, for disarmament
if possible, since the burden of preparation for war was becoming unbear-
able in France. In fact, I am convinced that if war was inevitable in the
near future it was the greatest fortune for France that it came just at the
moment when her efforts had reached the maximum, before she was com-
pelled by sheer economic exhaustion to abandon the race for military super-
iority.

The returning traveller feels more than ever the blessing of being an
American. Complain as we will of taxation, we know nothing of its burdens.
No war cloud hangs in our sun-lit skies. Such enemies as we have are too
remote to touch our imaginations. Neither grinding taxes, nor sickening
fear, nor consuming hate stain the pure happiness of American life.

Professor William H. Butts

The story of a quiet trip to France and Spain on the eve of war, the
rude shock of nations and the panic of the first month of hostilities are not
easily described in a few words. The only suggestion of war on the steamer
New York on her trip to Cherbourg was the unloading of three millions
O'f American gold and two millions of silver to enrich the war chest of

France. While driving to our hotel in Paris we saw a beautiful French
dirigible floating gracefully over the city in the morning mist but we thought
of art and beauty, not of war. Monoplanes and biplanes, seen at Chartres
and in the Chateaux region along the Loire, only aroused wonder and ad-
miration. The chateaux at Blois, Chambord, Chenonceau, Amboise and
Tours recalled the conflicts of knights and kings but did not suggest prepara-
tions to resist modem guns and explosives dropped from heaven. Even in
this garden-spot of France along the Loire, with its bountiful harvests and
fruitful vines, everyone complained of excessive taxes and prayed for the
return of their soldier boys to the farm and the home. Nowhere in France,
not even in Paris, did we hear the cry "On to Strassburg!" The govern-
ment and the people apparently had no desire for war. Stopping a day at
Bordeaux, we were surprised to find a wonderfif! port of entry and a most
prosperous city, very much like Hamburg in Germany. We little thought
that within a month this home of the Girondins would be the capital of France
and the depository of all the gold of the Paris banks. With its modern
forts and its harbor filled with ships, it is an ideal place of refuge.

After stopping a day at Biarritz, the premier bathing beach of France,
we wound our way into the Pyrenees, along a rushing river to the city of
Lourdes, surpassing in its climate and beautiful setting any city in the
lower Alps. The first evening we saw a procession of five thousand French
pilgrims carrying long candles and chanting as they mounted the long,
winding terrace to the basilica and descended to the beautiful statue of the
Madonna of Lourdes resplendent with electric lights. With a star-spangled
background and a gigantic cross on the mountain outlined with powerful
electric lights, the scene was one never to be forgotten. The second night
two thousand German pilgrims formed a similar procession, chanting in
Latin and singing in German. More reserved and dignified in their move-
ments but not so light hearted, they were Teutonic and not Celtic even in
religious rites. All drank the healing waters and made their act of contri-
tion in the same sacred stream but the miraculous cure of warring souls
was not to be accomplished.

Our month in Spain from San Sebastian through Burgos and Madrid
to Granada and back through Valencia to Barcelona was a continuous
panorama of Spanish and Moorish art and life. We enjoyed the beach
and sea food at San Sebastian, were overpowered by the grandeur of the
Burgos cathedral and greatly instructed by studying the wonderful Roman
aqueduct at Segovia. In Madrid the Prado art gallery impressed us more
than the louvre or any Italian gallery. The grouping of the masterpieces
of Murillo, Velasquez, Goya and Titian has no equal. This one gallery is
worth a trip to Spain. The bull fight in Madrid on a Sunday afternoon
gave a view of thousands of Spaniards enjoying their national sport, which
impressed us as superior to football as an exhibition of athletic training and
dexterity but aroused sympathy for the helpless horses blinded and pushed
before the enfuriated bulls only to be gored and killed while the riders
stabbed the bulls in the shoulder and fell awkwardly in the arena. This
bloody sport is all that remains of the tourney of the Dark Ages and is

losing caste with the educated but is demanded by the lower classes. It
does not seem to make the people cruel or blood-thirsty but acts as a safety
valve as football does in America.

In our visit to Toledo, the Spanish Rome on its picturesque hills sur-
rounded by the yellow Tagiis, we were struck with the maze of winding
streets so complex that Baedeker could not secure an accurate map of the
city. Herds of goats and sometimes cows often blocked our way as they
were driven from door to door delivering milk directly to the housewives.
In many cities is this delivered from the producer direct to the consumer.
Thirty miles from Madrid we saw the Escorial, a gigantic stone structure
of doubtful taste but blending harmoniously with the bleak sierras, — ^a con-
vent, palace and burial place of kings. The young king never willingly
visits this pantheon of his ancestors where only one sarcophagus remains
without its royal tenant. Many besides the king fear that this portends the
fall of royalty.

From Madrid to Cordova is a dreary succession of tawny plains and
nKDuntains covered with ripened grain, relieved at time^ by olive groves but
otherwise destitute of trees or foliage. The view gets on our nerves and we
long for trees. The primitive method of threshing the grain by lawn-
rollers drawn by mules over level areas of even-baked clay, illustrates the
fact that Spain is a century behind the times in agriculture. The Spaniard
loves his ease and has little initiative. The French and Belgians own and
operate the railroads and mines. In Seville we dreaded the temperature
of 130° in the shade but were comfortable even here In fact, Spain was
more comfortable than Ann Arbor, owing largely to the dry air, narrow
streets and thick stone walls of the buildings. In Granada the Alhambra
on a lofty hill covered with English elms, seemed to us a paradise. The
noble elms planted by Wellington form a fitting background for the per-
fection of Moorish art in the Alhambra. A more delightful spot to spend
a nK)nth in midsummer could not be found. Along eastern Spain from
Malaga to Barcelona the vineyards and groves of olive, orange and lemon
trees formed a beautiful foreground for the blue Mediterranean with its
countless fishing boats.

Barcelona is the Manchester of Spain with half a million people. We
found more extensive and finer boulevards than those of Madrid, more
business and finer views. Here the war broke out and foreign paper ^as
worthless. Fortunately we engaged the last cabin on the Spanish boat
sailing for New York September 25. After vainly cabling for cash and
visiting banks for ten days without success our stateroom was to be for-
feited when an old Porto Rican friend telegraphed credit from his home in
Mallorca, giving us pesetas for our return voyage. On August i the gov-
ernment issued the moratorium by which banks could limit payments to five
per cent, of deposits.

In our return voyage our German passengers dropped off at Malaga
and went by rail to Cadiz to escape capture at Gibraltar where a British
cruiser chased us until our captain gave assurance that we had no Germans
on board. On entering New York harbor we agreed with Chauncey Depew

who arrived two days earlier. He remarked that he never expected to go
to heaven but New York was good enough for him. On landing we met
Bruce Bromley who related the blood-airdling escapes of four Ann Arbor
students. Two lost their motorcycles and bags near Paris when a crowd
seized them as German spies and were on the point of shooting them when
the mayor of the town came to their rescue. Taken all into consideration,
our trips to Europe were more Jhan usually interesting and exciting. We
are duly thankful for all our blessings.

Professor Arthur G. Hall

Our delightful vacation tour through the British Isles this summer
was so devoid of spectacular inconveniences that an account of it will seem
comparatively tame. In company with Professor Elmer E. Powell, (Mich-
igan, 1885) and his wife and daughter, of Miami University, Mrs. Hall and
I sailed from Montreal on June 23 and landed in Liverpool on July 4.
There^Dr. Powell bought an American car. Indeed it seemed that one
fourth of the cars we met were of American make. The itinerary of our
two-thousand mile tour, which we carried out as originally planned, was
briefly as follows: Through Chester and North Wales to Carnarvon and
back, the Lake District, Scotland, the Cathedral towns, Cambridge and
Oxford, the Wye valley, northern and southern Devon, and Salisbury and
the New Forest, followed by a week in London.

The papers brought aboard by the Liverpool pilot announced the as-
sassination of the Archduke of Austria. The papers at Cambridge con-
tained the news of the Austro-Servian trouble. From that time the situ-
ation on the Continent developed rapidly. The extention for three days of
the bank holidays, followed by the issue of the crude looking one-pound and
ten-shilling notes and by other governmental measures completely averted
a financial panic, and our travellers* checks were good everywhere for face
value. So too the prompt action of the government Board of Trade kept
prices normal and prevented extortion. Once when our gasoline supply
gave out near Salisbury, we paid double price to a passing taxi-cab driver ;
but such incidents occur where there is no war.

In several cities near military depots we offered to register as aliens,
but were informed that as Americans we were welcome to go where we
pleased. Of course we avoided approaching the military camps on Salis-
bury Plain and similar places where a foreigner had no business to be. We
saw little of the war excepting the gathering and marching of troops and
the sentries at railway bridges. The Britons made it a matter of principle
to let ordinary affairs go on as usual. This does not mean that they took
matters lightly: their serious determination was not to be mistaken. In
London we registered with the American committee at the Savoy Hotel
and found a Michigan alumnus. Dr. L. C. Bacon, 'gom, of St. Paul, at the
desk. The important and efficient work of this committee cannot be too
highly commended throughout America. It was fully recognized in Eng-
land. For instance The Times gave several columns to it each morning.

40 THE MICHIGAN ALUMNUS [October

We sailed from London, or rather Tilbury, on August 21, anchoring
that night off Sheemess under the guns and searchlights of the battle-
ships there, and similarly off Plymouth the following night. Our vessel
carried no freight and the consequent lively motion aggravated attacks of
seasickness. Four six inch gims mounted on deck served to reassure (?) the
fearful. We were in continual wireless communication with a British
cruiser but saw no warships of any sort on the ocean. Our ship was
filled with passengers, but all the accommodations were as comfortable and
pleasant as in times of peace. Save for the nervous tension everything went
as usual. Thus with this exception, we have only the pleasantest memories
of our simimer's outing.

Professor Henry C, Adams

A letter from Professor H. C. Adams, to President Hutchins, dated
August 16, at Peking, China, announces that the Adams family will sail for
home from Yokahama on September 26. The war in Europe caused them
to change their plans r^^rding the return through Europe, and a stay of
some months in Germany for observations and research in political economy.

The letter told of the satisfactory termination of Professor Adams'
work as a member of the Commission for the unification of the railway
accounts and statistics of the Ministry of Communication, Mr. Adams hav-
ing been appointed to this Commission nearly two years ago by the Chinese
government. In part the letter reads as follows:

"This war has broken entirely my program of travel for which the
Regents gave me an additional one-half year's leave of absence. While I
could go through India, perhaps, with some degree of safety, I do not feel
warranted in returning via Europe. I might go to Manila, but if the Japs
are going to take a hand in the game, as seems probable from the ultimatum
just sent to Germany, every mile that brings me nearer to the Pacific
coast will be a relief.

"Should the situation change during the next two or three weeks I
may yet carry out my original plan, but that is not likely, and I have wired
for accommodations to carry me home from Yokahama on the 26th of
September.

"This is the second time that the Adams family has started up an
international war by moving out of the country. We were in Berlin when
the Spanish-American war broke out.

"The boys arrived safely a week ago, and are seeing the sights of the
city. Their trip has been well worth while, and I am impressed anew with
.ne fact that there are many kinds of an education beside that given by a
university.

"For myself, the work that I came to do is finished, and seems to have
met with favor, for in the reorganization of the Ministry of Communica-
tion it has been made the cornerstone of one of the seven divisions into
which the ministry is divided. Rather strong inducements have been
offered to lead me to return for three or four months two years from
now, which will be the critical period for this entire experiment, but I said
I could make no promise till I had been home."

MICHIGAN 58; DE PAUW 0

Early-season predictions that the 1914
team would be one of the best which Yost
has ever given Michig^, were seemingly
fulfilled in the first game of the season on
September 30, when the Wolverines over-
whelmed the eleven from De Pauw Uni-
versity by the score of 58 to o.

In this game, which was watched by a
crowd of over 5,000, the Varsity's backs
were able to gain nearly at will through the
defense which the Saturday before had
held Indiana University to a 13 to 6 score.
As is customary in early games on Ferry
Field, Quarterback Hughitt had but a
small repertoire of plays to use, but every
one of them proved effective. Yost sent
in three complete sets of backs, and the
substitute combinations proved nearly as
capable as their predecessors in gaming
ground.

Although Coach Yost started his train-
ing season this fall with four "M'* wearers
for his backfield, there was just one letter
man in the team which went onto the field
to start the game. This man was Ernest
"Tommy" Hughitt, the quarterback. Two
sophomores, Maulbetsch and Splawn, and
a 1913 substitute, Bastian, composed the
trio of backs. Gait would ordinarily have
been in Bastian's place had it not been for
his injured knee, which again threatens to
impair his effectiveness as ati exceptionally
good half back. Catlett, an ''M" man, got
into the battle before it was over and did
good work. Bushnell, the other letter man,
sat on the sidelines with an injured foot.

Michigan carried the ball during prac-
tically the whole game, and the battle was
a series of dashes toward successive Wol-
verine touchdowns. In one instance it re-
quired but a single play to negotiate the
6 points. Hughitt had carried the kick-off
back past the middle of the field. Then
he called on Splawn for a forward pass,
the ball going squarely into the waiting
arms of right end Lyons, who went over
for a touchdown and a 45-yard gain. It
was the only successful forward pass of
the game, the remainder of Michigan's ef-
forts missing narrowly, while De Pauw's
all went sadly amiss.

Maulbetsch made two of the touchdowns
on short plunges through the line, missing
a third when he jammed the b^ up against

an upright instead of past it. This young
player, who has been the idol of Michigan
men since the day when he started to play
football for the Ann Arbor High School,
showed great promise as a plunger and as
a defensive player. Siplawn, the dther
sophomore in the backfield, considered the
best young kicker ever on Ferry Field,
punted for long Wolverine gains, and also

Other changes provide for the use of a
field judge in the bigger games, the keep-
ing absolutely clear of the neutral zone
between the forward lines of the opposing
teams, the prohibition of the grounding of
a forward pass when it seems about to be
unsuccessful and to result in a loss of
ground, and the stopping of the play which
allows of the hiding of a player along the
sidelines.

It is not expected that the style of the
game at present played, will be materi-
ally changed as a result of these few
changes, but that they will have the further
effect of simplifying the general type of
play and will make the rules more intelli-

possible the direction of the play on the
field by the coach, the coaches themselves
believe this change will have but little
eflFect. Play can still possibly be directed
by the sending in of substitutes, but it will
make necessary the planning of a more
complex system of signals if the coach
should still desire to have any large share
in the direction of the play.

The other change will allow of more
effective work in the blocking of kicks, in
that it permits of the kicker's being touched
after the kick, although it is left with the
officials to keep this play from becoming
rough. It is expected that the players will
charge through for the blocking of kicks

ATHLETIC NOTES

Edmon P. McQueen, *!$€, of Lowell, has
been elected captain of the baseball team
for the coming year. McQueen has played
two years at second base on the Varsity
team.

At the close of the 1914 baseball season,
*^" hats and sweaters were awarded to
the following men: Captain Sisler, Fergu-
son, Baribeau, Quaintance and Davidson,
IMtchers ; Baer and Hippler, catchers ; How-
ard, McQueen, Baker, Hughitt and Waltz,
infielders; Sheehy, Benton and Labadie,
outfielders.

Arthur W. Kohler, '14, captain of the
1914 Michigan track team, won first place
in the hammer throw and third place in the
discus at the A. A. U. track meet for the
Central States held on July 4 at Dayton,
Ohio. Kohler entered under the auspices
of the Illinois Athletic Association, which

won the meet. His throw of 164 feet, 6
inches with the hammer was 7 feet, 3f4
inches farther than the throw with which
he won the gold medal at the eastern in-
tercollegiate this spring.

Harold L. Smith, *i6, Detroit, has been
elected Varsity track captain for the com-
ing year. He is a sprinter and hurdler,
taking second place in the 220 yard and
fifth in the lOO yard dash at the intercol-
legiate meet this spring. He is the only
sophomore who has ever been chosen cap-
tain of a Michigan track team.

The much talked of Varsity "M" Club,
membership in which is open to any man
who has won a Varsity **M", was formerly
organized on Tuesday of Commencement
Week at a meeting at the Union attended
by over a hundred of the seven hundred
"M" men. Henry J. Killilca, '85/, of Mil-
waukee, who played on the Varsity eleven
in the early eighties when thcnr tnet Har-
vard, was made president and vice-presi-
dents were elected to represent the differ-
ent branches of the major sports. Con-
gressman Edwin Denb>', '96/, of Detroit
was chosen to act as football vice-presi-
dent. Edmund C Shields, '94, '96/, still
known as one of the famous Michigan
pitchers, received the baseball vice-presi-
dency, and Nelson A. Kellogg, '04, former
star distance runner, and &t present ath-
letic director of the University of Iowa,
was made senior vice-president. The Board
of Directors consists of William C. John-
son, '78, Detroit; Irving K. Pond, '79^,
Chicago; George P. Codd, '91, Detroit;
Frank E. Bliss, '73^, '79/, Cleveland; and
Ralph C. Craig, '11, Detroit.

bonds.

— The president presented resolutions
adopted by the Superintendents* Section of
the Michigan State Teachers' Association
under date of April 24, requesting the Re-
gents to establish a model school and oth-
erwise to improve the work in the training
of secondary school teachers at the Uni-
versity.— The rule for refund of fees to
students in the regular session was ex-
tended, for proportionate periods, to stu-
dents in the summer session. This rule is
formulated as follows for the summer ses-

(i) The same general rule obtains, as in the
regular session, that no refund shall be made to
any student withdrawing from the Summer Ses-
sion otherwise than in good standing.

(2) Any student withdrawing from the Summer
Session voluntarily and in good standing, within
one week of his registration, shall be entitled to
a refund of his entire Summer Session fee.

Summer Session more than one week and not
more than two weeks after his registration, is
entitled to a refund of one-half his Summer Ses-
sion fee.

(4) A student who withdraws thus more than
two weeks and less than four weeks (in the Law
Department less than five weeks; in the Medical
Department less than three weeks) after his regis-
tration, is entitled to a refund of 40 per cent of
his Summer Session fee.

(5) A student may enroll for the latter half
or less of a Summer Session on payment of a fee
equal to 60 per cent of the fee for the entire
Summer Session in the Department in which such
student enrolls.

(6) The 40 per cent thus refunded to students
enrolling for the second half of the Summer Ses-
sion shall be included in determining any further
refund to withdrawing students under (2) and
(3) above.

— The President read a communication
from Mr. Winfield Goong presenting for
the art gallery two specimens of twentieth
century Chinese embroidery, the gift being
intended to be an expression of Mr.
Goong's appreciation of the treatment ac-
corded by the University to the Chinese
students. The gift was accepted by the
Board with thanks.— The Secretary read a
communication from Ex-Governor and

sending to the University a plaster cast of
certain rare Bushmen engravings in South
Africa. The gift of this cast was accepted
with the thanks of the Board. — Volney
Hunter Wells was appointed as Instructor
in Mathematics in the Department of Lit-
erature, Science, and the Arts. — A com-
munication was received from Professor
Roth stating that the Forestry department

— The President presented the two follow-
ing communications from Doctor C. B. G.
de Nancrede, Professor of Surgery:

Ann Arbcr, Mich., July 14, 1914.

To the Honorable Board of Kegcnts;
Gentlemen :

Finding that I cannot properly provide for a
large number of useful and valuable surgical in-
struments, may I beg their acceptance by the
University Hospital, where I trust that they will
prove as serviceable in the future as they have in
the past. Although not capable of being sold for
any such amount, originally they cost about
$1,000, and would require this sum to duplicate
them.

Ann Arbor, Mich., July 14, 1914.

To the Honorable Board of Regents;
Gentlemen :

I have found some hundreds of works in my
possession which are not in the Medical portion
of the Library of the University of Michigan.

I would ask that you accept such as are not
duplicates, so that I can feel that these books will
still be useful to other students.

Until all duplicates have been eliminated I can-
not say how many volumes may be acceptable, but
should estimate these at about 500.
Very truly,

C. B. G. dc NANCREDE.

These gifts from Doctor de Nancrede were
accepted with the thanks of the Regents. —
The President was authorized to extend an
invitation to Doctor Leroy Waterman to
become Professor of Semitics in the Uni-
versty, at the salary of $3,000 per year. —
On motion of Regent Beal, Mr. Gilbert H.
Taylor was appointed Instructor in Semit-
ics for the Universty year 1914-1915. — A
communication was received from Profes-
sor F. M. Taylor stating that since the
passage of the budp^et for 1914-1915 he
had received the resignations of Assistant
Professor Hamilton and Messrs. S. M.
Hamilton, Stevenson, and Shugrue. In
order to meet conditions raised by these
resignations, Professor Taylor recommend-
ed readjustments in the work of Professor
Friday and Assistant Professor Dowrie
whereby they would take on a larger
amount of more advanced work and would
have some assistance in the lower grade
work. In accordance with this recommen-
dation, the Board approved a schedule of
appointments, including F. F. Kolbe, W. F.
Marsteller, P. W. Ivey, R. G. Rodkey, to
Instructorships. — Mr. J. A. Van den Broek
was appointed as Instructor in Engineering
Mechanics for the year 1914-1915, vice Mr.
A. L. Ladd, and Mr. Orlan William Bos-
ton was appointed Instructor in Engineer-
ing Mechanics for the year 1914-1915. —
Certain changes recommended by the fac-
ulty of the Departments of Engineering
and Architecture in the curricula for archi-
tectural students, were approved. — Martin
J. Orbcck was appointed Instructor in De-
scriptive Geometry and Drawing, vice F.
E. Kristal. resigned, and the appointment

A LETTER TO THE ALUMNUS

Worcester, Mass., September 15, 1914.
General Secretary,

The Alumni Association,
Ann Arbor, Michigan.
Dear Sir:—

I trust that you will allow an individual
suggestion from a Michigan man and an
Easterner, one who is doubly interested in
the coming Michigan-Harvard football
game, and place this communication before
the proper parties to act upon as they see
fit.

It is as to cheering and singing at the
game. I understand that the Michigan
band is well organized and will be present
at the game, which fact will doubtless aid
the singing. I hope that well trained cheer
leaders will also come on. I think that the
Eastern alumni will give a good account
of themselves, if so led.

Having attended a number of games in
the Harvard Stadium, I have been struck
with its acoustic properties. A long drawn
out cheer does not "go" so well, in my
opinion, as the short snappy one. The
high walls and seats cause an echo and
the result is that the last part of a cheer
is apt to greet the first part coming back.
I have noticed, too, that people sitting on
the side of the cheering in that vast stadi-
um cannot hear the words distinctly if
drawn out and in getting the echo back, a
confusion of sound is likely to result. Of
course the spectators opposite the cheering
are not so troubled. The short snappy
cheering of Ohio State on Ferry Field
has always made a good impression on
my memory, lasting longer perhaps thaii
my remembrances of the games themselves.
The Harvard cheer is long drawn out and
their music always seemed to me to be
slow moving.

The interest throughout the East in the
game is increasing rapidly. I have no
doubt the game will outdraw the Harvard-
Princeton game the following Saturday on

the same field. Among the 40,000, which
can be seated the vast majority will be
Harvard sympathizers and also "neutral"
Easterners. The latter will appreciate a
good game and will be willing to be shown.
A fighting team, backed by an enthusiastic
bundi of alumni and students, no matter
how small in number, will create a favor-
able impression, irrespective of the final
outcome of the game.

I do not for a minute want to abolish
any of the old Michigan songs and cheers,
but I would like to hear in addition some
snappy ones, written if necessary for the
occasion and printed for distribution to
alumni associations so that the memories
of the old may be refreshed and the new
ones learned for this game. I do not need
to state that the Eastern alumni will ac-
cord an enthusiastic greeting.

Camp has lately written that the game,
this Pall, will settle the year's champion-
ship, but that it will not in one game de-
cide the merits of the Eastern and West-
em football. Pretty fair for a Yale man.
Harvard in its prospects and material is
the best in years, but we have faith in
Yost and a Michigan team.

Sincerely yours,
Merrili. S. June, '12/.

A CHICAGO MID-SUMMER OUTING

Story of How Chicago's Michigan Men

Disported Themselves at Their Annual

Picnic.

"Soak 'em. John !"

•*BAWL TUH!"

— And John got his base on balls — some-
times. And sometimes he landed on the
big armory ball for a home run. Where-
upon his teammates, old boys and young-
uns, howled with delight as John's corpu-
lent person galloped and puffed across the
home plate.

It was the big ball game between the
"Germans" and the "Russians" at the an-
nual midsummer outing of the Chicago
Alumni Association of the University of
Michigan.

"The Time — Saturday Afternoon, Au-
gust 29.

"The Place— Ravinia Park, Chicago.

**The Girl — Merrie Michigan" — was the
way the event was announced in the Chica-
go "Michigan Bulletin."

And that afternoon there was a mobili-
zation of Michigan men for the park. Men
with downy moustaches and men old and
shrewd in the game of the "wide, wide
world" left their labors and gathered to
have fun together like boys again. They
loafed, loitered, lingered and leaped. They
talked war and played baseball. They har-
monized and melodized and yelled the old

yells once more, with "Bony" Bohnsack as
leader.

The features of the day were the two
bloody battles between the Germans and the
Russians on the beautiful baseball field be-
fore the stadium. For the first game the
"chose up" line-up was as follows: Rus-
sians— "Smi" Smith, *ii (Capt.) ; Drake,
Curtis, Reighard, Roth, Hoover, Reisser,
Kolyn, Supple.

Germans — McKenzie, '96 (Capt.) ; Lunn,
Bohnsack, David, Eckhard, Haller, Heck-
ler, Newmarke, Small.

The Deutschers won by a score of 8 to 4.
Umpires — Dr. H. S. Eisenstaedt, and I. K.
Pond. Errors, 78.

Second Battle: Russians — David (Capt.)
Martin, Davis, Hoover, Hoffman, W. Gal-
loway, Towler, Adams, Roth.

Germans — Bohnsack (Capt) ; O'Connor,
Drake, Lunn, J. Galloway, Chadwick, Mar-
tin, Green, Kolyn, Eckhart.

The dead were 11 to 7, in favor of the
Germans.

At the banquet out under the trees by
the casino in the evening Capt. Art Bohn-
sack was presented with a "silver loving
cup" in honor of his valiant work in the
battles of the afternoon. The "cup" was
a bright tin horn.

About 125 Michigan men were present
at the outing, and many brought their
wives, children, friends or fiancees. The
oldest grad present was Bartow A. Ulrich,
'64. The afternoon symphony concert by
the Chicago Symphony orchestra and the
opera, Lucia di Lammermoor, in the even-
ing given in the open-air auditorium, were
the main free attractions. All the good old
songs in the Michigan Union song books,
a snake dance, and a prolonged mouth or-
gan and tin horn concert, very ably led by
Mr. L K. Pond, '79^, succeeded the dinner.

Anyway, they all went home with brain
and brawn renewed. Everybody was hap-
py and had the smile that wouldn't come
of? for 'twas all the way through.

CHICAGO

In an effort to get directly in touch with
the new graduates of the University who
locate in Chicago, furnish them with in-
formation concerning the city and help
them in any way possible, the Chicago
Alumni Association of the University will
establish this year an employment commit-
tee, consisting of Michigan men who are
representative in their professions and lines
of business. It is planned to centralize
the work of the committee in a secretary,
who will act, first, as a clearing house for
the employer and employee; and second, as
the organizing point through which the
work of the committee can be broadened

mittee, however, will rarely be called upon
to meet, but will act in an advisory capaci-
ty and as a medium for obtaining and
spreading information.

PORTO RICO ALUMNI ENTERTAIN
DR. NOW

A royal reception was extended to Dr.
Novy and family on the occasion of his
visit to Porto Rico this summer. As the
steamer was being warped in its berth it
was boarded by a Committee of the Asso-
ciation, consisting of Dr. M. Del Valle,
'gid, Dr. E. DeGoenaga, 'oSd, R. Del Valle,
*oid^ B^. (Phar. hon.) '07 Buenaventura
Jimmez, 'o5*w, and M. Del Valle, *i6i?. In
the name of the Association Dr. Novy was
welcomed to the Island and presented with
an engrossed copy of Resolutions adopted
by the Porto Rican Branch of Michigan
Alumni.

The Porto Rico branch of the Alumni
Association of the University of Michi-
gan, desiring to do honor to Dr. Fred G.
Novy, Professor at the University of Mich-
igan, on his proposed trip to Porto Rico,
passed the following resolutions at a meet-
ing held June 11, T914.

Be it resolved, that on the occasion of
the visit of Dr. Fred 0. Novy, of the fac-
ulty of the University of Michigan, to the
Island of Porto Rico that the members of
the Porto Rican branch of the Alumni As-
sociation of the University of Michigan, do
extend to him a most hearty greeting and
welcome to our Island, and assure him of
our great pleasure for the opportunity of
welcoming him, not only as a man of world
wide reputation as a scientist, but also as
a member of the faculty and representative
of the University of Michigan, our well
loved Alma Mater.

Be it also resolved, that the members of
this association, both individually and col-
lectively, do place ourselves at the disposal
of Dr. Novy, in whatever way may be pos-
sible, in order that his stay here may be
as pleasant as possible, and that he may
see that the spirit of Michigan, transferred
to a tropic island, remains always the same.
Manuel V. Del Valle, rf'91,

President
Jose E. Benedicto,

Secretary.
San Juan, Porto Rico, August, 1914.

The Committee kindly placed their auto-
mobiles at the service of the party which
was then transported to Rio Piedras eight
miles from San Juan, where they took up
their stay as guests of Dean R. S. Gar-
wood, '92, and Juanita Garza Garwood.
Mr. Garwood, then Dean of the normal
school at Rio Piedras, is now performing

the duties of Dean of the Agricultural Col-
lege at Mayaguez.

On the following day Drs. Del Valle and
De Goenaga arranged a delightful auto
trip via Catanio, liayamon to Camerio.

On August 20, a dinner was tendered Dr.
Xovy at the Union Club, by the Asociacion
Medica de Puerta Rico. It was attended
by about 20 of the foremost practitioners
of the Island, telegrams of regret being
sent by many unable to be present. It was
presided over by Dr. Bailey K. Ash ford,
U. S. Medical Corps, who called upon Dr.
Gutierrez Igaravidez to give the address
of welcome to which a response was made
by Dr. Novy.

The following evening an informal re-
ception and smoker was held at the Club
Rooms of the Asociacion Medica.

Subsequently, a most profitable visit was
made to the Institute for Tropical Medi-
cine where valuable research is conducted
by Drs. Gonzales, Gutierrez, Ashford, King
and others. The excellent bacteriological
laboratory of the Board of Health is con-
ducted by Drs. Gonzales and Hernandez,
the latter a former student in the Medical
Department of the University in i900-*oi.
The entire governmental chemical work on
the Island is under the charge of Raphael
Del Valle, 'oip, B.S. (Phar. hon.) '07, and
Angel M. Pesquera, Ph.C. '11.

In company with Dr. Lippett, Director
of Public Health, and Dr. Gomez Briosa
a visit was made to the leper island.

Through the extreme courtesy of Dr.
Ashford an auto trip was taken via Catanio,
Bayamon. Arecibo to Utuado in the coffee
country, the scene of an extensive anti-
hookworm campaign.

The Alumni Association further arrang-
ed an auto trip for Dr. Novy and family
across the Island, via Gaguas, Cayey, Guay-
ma, Salinas to Ponce, thence returning via
Coamo Springs, Coamo, Aibonito and
Cayey. Drs. De Croenaga and M. Del Valle
were the efficient guides on this long and
most interesting ride.

On August 28, the evening before sail-
ing, the Alumni Association tendered a
banquet to Dr. Novy at the Cafe Cova-
donga. Those present were:

Manuel V. del Valle, *9»<i; Estaban A. dc

An eloquent speech by Dr. Barbosa, *8om,
and by Diego A. Biascochea, '14, with songs
and cheers for Michigan closed a most
pleasant evening.

On the day of sailing through the cour-
tesy of Dr. Pedro Del Valle, '91m, the
quarantine officer of San Juan, a govern-
ment launch was placed at the service of
Dr. Novy and the Alumni Association and
friends for embarcation in the roadstead.
Amid hearty, vigorous U. of M. cheers,
the launch turned shoreward while the
steamer got under way.

EUGENE, ORE.

The University of Michigan Alumni As-
sociation of Eugene, Oregon, held its an-
nual banquet on the evening of May 14.

to have been the best and most enthusiastic
that the local association has ever held.

oughly enjoyed the dinner, after which the
annual election was held, resulting in the
election of the following officers for the

LLD. '02, one of the most enthusiastic of
Michigan's oldest graduates, responded to
"Michigan — ^Always and Everywhere." The
college songs, led by Mrs. Rose Powell at
the piano, served to revive and renew the
memories of college days.

The local association has a membership
of over thirty and is very energetic and
enthusiastic, in spite of the great distance
that separates its members from the scenes
of their college life.

The members present at the banquet num-
bered graduates from 1861 to 1913. Those
in attendance included :

BOOK REVIEWS

The Alumnus reviews recently published works by alumni, former students, or members of the
Faculty, and works directly relatmg to the University. Copies of such books, sent for review, are
placed in the Alumni Library in the Alumni Room.

BOOK AND MAGAZINE NOTES

Theodore W. Koch, Librarian of the Un-
iversity, is the author of several pamphlets
which have appeared during the summer.
Two papers on *The Bibliotheque Nation-
ale/' the first dealing with its organization
and history, and the second with its ad-
ministration, have been reprinted from
The Library Journal for May and June,
1914, and are published together. The Au-
gust number of The North American Re-
view contained an article, "Some Old-Time
Old-World Librarians," which has since
been reprinted in pamphlet form, and in
the Library Journal for August, 1914, was
published his account of the Leipzig Expo-
sition and the opening of the A. L. A. ex-
hibit, of which Mr. Koch had charge. This
has been recently published under the title
"Impressions of the Leipzig Exposition and
the Opening of the A. L. A. Exhibit." The
pamphlet is printed on plate paper and il-
lustrated with numerous photographs.

Professor W. T. Hussey. Professor of
Astronomy and Director of the Observa-
tory', who spends half the year at La Plata
University in South America, has recently
published a report of his astronomical work
at La Plata. In addition to a detailed ac-
count of the two himdred double stars
lately discovered, the booklet describes in
general the work done at the institution,
and the experimental work of Paul T.
Delavan, *i2r, and B. F. Dawson, who have
been at La Plata for some time. Professor
Hussey has been in Ann Arbor during part
of the past year, but returned to La Plata
in lune.

Dr. Edgar Ewing Brandon, '88, Vice-
President of Miami University, wrote for
the July number of "The Journal of Race
Development" a paper entitled "Higher Ed-
ucation in Latin America," in which he dis-
cusses the facilities, equipment, organiza-
tion and teachers of the principal Latin-
American colleges and universities. The
article has since been reprinted in pamphlet
form.

Peter W. Dykema, '95, M.L. '96. Profes-
sor of Community Music at the University
of Wisconsin, is the editor of the Music
Supervisor's Bulletin, published four times
a year by the National Conference of Mu-
sic Supervisors. He is also vice-president
of the association.

Glenn Palmer. '10, formerly an instruc-
tor in the rhetoric department of the Uni-
versity, is on the staff of The Cornhill
Booklet, of Boston, which has recently been
revived. The magazine was originated in
1900 by Mr. Alfred Bartlett, and in its five
years of existence published uncollected
writings of Robert Louis Stevenson, Na-
thaniel Hawthorne, Oliver Wendell Holmes,
Eugene Field and Rudyard Kipling. The
new Cornhill Booklet is to contain letters
and uncollected writings of well-known au-
thors, with comment and illustrations. In
the October number, besides a story by
Mr. Palmer, are found unpublished frag-
ments of Oscar Wilde's De Profundis, an
uncollected poem by Leigh Hunt, and a
poem by Percy Mackaye. For future is-
sues, uncollected writings from the pens
of Thackeray, Stevenson, Synge, Maeter-
linck, Arthur Upson, Arthur Simons, and
Walter Savage Landor are announced.

The August number of Case and Com-
mcnt, published by the Lawyers Co-op. Pub-
lishing Co., contains three articles by alum-
ni of the University. Alvin Waggoner,
'06/, of Philip, S. Dak., writes on "Oliver
Goldsmith's Relation to the Law;" Ken-
neth G. Silliman, '12/, of Sioux City, la.,
is the author of an article entitled "Scott
and the Lawyer;" and Marshall D. Ewell,
'68/, LL.D. '79, of Chicago, well known as
a handwriting expert, contributes "Expert
Examination of Ink Marks on Paper."

William Warner Bishop, '92, A.M. '93.
Superintendent of the Reading Room of
the Library of Congress is the author of a
pamphlet entitled "The Backs of Books."
which was delivered originally as the Com-
mencement address at the exercises of the
Library School of the New York Public
Library on June 12, 1914.

Lieut. Thomas M. Spaulding, '05, of the
United States Army, wrote for a recent is-
sue of The Sezvanee Review a description
of "The Battle of North Point." one of
the little known contests of the War of
1812.

Leonard Lanson Cline, 'io-'i3, has re-
cently issued a book of verse, entitled,
"Poems," which has been favorably com-
mented on. It was brought out by The
Poet Lore Company.

THE MICHIGAN ALUMNUS

[November

This increasing at-
SOME PROBLEMS tendance, particular-
THEY BRING ly marked during the
last few years, is
bringing problems which • present
themselves with equal insistence to the
Regents, the Faculty and the alumni.
There is certainly some foundation
for the feeling that we are growing
too rapidly to permit of correspond-
ing internal development. But it is
a satisfaction to feel that this growth
is healthy, even though it brings cer-
tain hardships alike to Faculty and
students, owing to the form of the
University's organization, and to the
absolute necessity of a budget pre-
pared the previous year. Certain
courses are inevitably disorganized
at the beginning of each year.
Temporary quarters have to be pre-
pared, and in many cases teachers of
lower rank are hastily marshalled to
meet the demand. It takes time to
make a professor. Reference to the re-
port of the October meeting of the
Regents will show how many adjust-
ments have been necessary, flt Yet as
one looks back and views the measures
which have been taken year by year
to meet these increasing numbers, new
buildings, an enlarged Faculty and
new courses which have followed in-
evitably, one realizes that the Univer-
sity is responding nobly, and that the
hardships are only partial and local-
ized. The really important aspect of
this whole question lies in its
bearing upon the final effectiveness
of the University as a center for the
dissemination of knowledge and for
the preparation for life of those who
enter its doors With the increase in
size comes, of course, a more than pro-
portionate increase in the difficulties
of administration. This is one of the
great problems for all universities, and
one which the University is facing
with at least a certain degree of suc-
cess. The University is so large now
that the addition of a few hundred
students each ^xar makes but the

smallest difference in the final problem
of avoiding that impersonality and
mechanical routine so usual, one al-
most says inevitable, in so large an in-
stitution.

One of the happiest
FINANCIAL of the features in the
PROBLEMS development of the
University is its
method of financial support by the
State. To correspond with the Uni-
versity's growth there is a continual
increase in the wealth and resources
of the State, made available at once
through the three-eighths of a mill tax.
This, supplemented by the not incon-
siderable percentage from the student
and hospital fees and by occasional,
but very necessary gifts of various
sorts from alumni and friends of the
University, make up the total income.
CI While the capital of endowed uni-
versities, when wisely and conserva-
tively invested, always shows a ten-
dency to shrink, the state university,
supported by a mill tax, finds its
capital constantly increasing with
the growth of the State. The increase
of $192,000 to the annual income of
the University resulting from the re-
equalization of the property in the
State, made by the State Board during
the past summer, is a case in i>oint
particularly pleasing to the friends of
the University. The total valuation
of property in the State, according to
the tax commissioners, has increased
from approximately $2,288,000,000 in
1912 to $2,800,000,000 in 1914, result-
ing in an increased income to the Uni-
versity from $858,000 in 1912 to
$1,050,000 in 1914. This, together with
approximately $400,000 from student
fees, including the increase in students
this year, $30,000 from the Summer
Session, and approximately $260,000
from the hospitals, as well as about
$35,000 from various minor accounts,
gives the University an income for the
present year of $1,930,000.

EVENT AND COMMENT

65

This is, of course, a
TIMELY large sum, especially

ASSISTANCE in view of the extra-
ordinary increase of
over $200,000 in the present year. But
when we have an increase of prac-
tically ten per cent in the number of
students every two years, paralleled
by a constantly increasing high cost of
living which many an impecunious
Faculty member will assure the reader
rests nowhere harder than in Ann Ar-
bor, where the University, by its very
presence, creates almost necessarily
certain abnormal business conditions,
this increase comes right in the nick
of time. Comparison with Chicago's
reported $2,750,000, Harvard's $2,-
487,000, Illinois' $2,305,000, or Cor-
nell's $2,207,543, especially when one
considers that undoubtedly, with one
or two possible exceptions, Michigan
has the largest attendance of any uni-*
versity in the country, would indicate
the conservatism and business ability
of the Regents in bringing in the bud-
get for 1914-15. This was well within
the estimated income before the re-
equalization increased the income
from the mill tax. The University
may now find it possible to institute
an increase in the scale of salaries
which is becoming more and more im-
perative, and carry out some of the
other projects which lack of funds in
the past has prohibited.

As the President
FOR ALUMNI Emeritus has so often
CONSIDERATION said in the past, this
growth of American
Universities, particularly in the Mid-
dle West, is part of the characteristic-
ally American — or shall we limit it
even more? — "mid-western" passion
for education. It has brought about
practically a revolution within a quar-
ter of a century. We must certainly
recognize that the University of the
present is not the University of twen-

ty-five years ago. flt This expansion
brings inevitably, of course, certain
questions in administrative and aca-
demic policy that are, in many cases,
still to be settled. These are before
the whole University constituency
right now ; they are for the alumni as
much as for the governing bodies and
Faculties. It is even conceivable that
the students, about whom the Univer-
sity revolves, may be interested,
though possibly that is too much to
hope for until after the football sea-
son. But even football brings its aca-
demic problems, flt Some of the ques-
tions which arise immediately from
the growth of the University have al-
ready been suggested. Others equally
pressing, but which do not come home
with the same force to the ordinary
alumnus who is not directly interested
in educational matters are such prob-
lems as that of the A.B. degree which
was touched upon in these columns
last month, or that ordinarily dreary
balancing of credit and hours in the
discussion of entrance requirements,
which are being considered with par-
ticular attention in some of the east-
ern colleges where our accredited
school system is not applied. This
again suggests the question of en-
trance examinations for freshmen as
against the diploma from accredited
schools, the system of the eastern en-
dowed schools as against the practice
of the state universities The ques-
tion of entrance requirements, too,
brings one to a consideration of how
far the recognition of vocational train-
ing in schools should be carried in the
University Such questions as these
may appear academic and the reverse
of inspiring to the average alumnus,
but they lie at the root of the modern
university system as it is developing
in its relations to modem life It
would be of gjeat advantage to the
University if there were more alumni
who took the trouble to inform them-
selves concerning them.

[November

This evolutionary

SS5f,??1!!?S.„^re process which is part
BODIES. FACULTIES'^ r . . j •

AND STUDENTS ^^ the modern univer-
sity is reflected in the
discussions, perhaps more interesting
for the ordinary graduate, of certain
problems of university administration
involving the relationship of the Fac-
ulty and governing bodies to one an-
other and to the student. Dean Johns-
ton, in his discussion on "University
Organization" in the October Alum-
nus might be taken as an illustration.
There seem to be few who are vitally
interested in the conduct of a modem
university who are satisfied with the
present methods, but the solution of
the problem has apparently not been
found. CI A consideration of Academ-
ic Freedom by Howard Crosby War-
ren, of Princeton, President of the
American Psychological Association,
in the November Atlantic in another
example. In that very interesting dis-
cussion, the author points out the fact
that academic freedom of teaching,
the akademische Lehrfreiheit, of Ger-
man universities is of the highest im-
portance in developing true scholar-
ship. The American interpretation of
this principle, however, differs from
the German. While the German pro-
fessor of high rank is free to offer any
course whatsoever within the confines
of his own branch, the American col-
lege "seeks to weld its curriculum into
an organic unity and this necessitates
a definite apportionment of courses
among the staff. Freedom of teaching
does not mean that an instructor may
offer any course which he deems wise
without securing the consent of his
colleagues. It means rather the ab-
sence of constraint by non-academic
forces." CI As Professor Warren fur-
ther points out, the physician, or law-
yer, is responsible for his professional
conduct to his medical or bar associa-
tion, while the scholar is dependent
for the opportunity to practice his call-
ing, as well as for his material ad-
vancement to governing boards, which

for certain, and quite natural reasons,
are composed of laymen It is a sys-
tem which has proved highly success-
ful from the standpoint of instruction,
though it is more open to criticism
from that of scholarship. The curric-
ulum of most American institutions
has kept nearly abreast with the pro-
gress of learning, but the principle of
academic constraint has worked injury
to the scholastic profession.

Michigan has every
NOT DOWN- reason to be proud of
HEARTED the team which met
Harvard October 31,
1914. True, they did not win, but in
spite of inexperience and accidents,
they almost turned the trick. Probab-
ly, as they faced one another in Har-
vard's stadium, the better team won.
But if it did, it was only by the small-
est of margins. That Michigan, in
view of the greenness of her team,
which lacked Harvard's long training,
and the accidents to such vital spots
as Hughitt's elbow and Splawn's knee,
was unable to summon the final punch
for that last drive in face of Harvard's
magnificent rallies in the shadow of
her own goal posts is surely not to her
discredit. That was where Harvard's
veteran team rose bravely to the occa-
sion. CI In carrying the ball, Mich-
igan made a greater yardage .than
Harvard, gaining 191 yards, as against
127 for her opponents, though this
was more than offset by Harvard's
advantage in kicking and forward pas-
sing. Michigan gained 1 1 first downs
to Harvard's 7, though it must be ac-
knowledged that on penalties she lost
70 yards to Harvard's 17. Michigan's
fine pluck and effectiveness was a reve-
lation to the eastern spectators who,
from all accounts, expected a much
easier victory. The fact that Michigan
carried the ball 3 yards to Harvard's 2,
and that twice she had the ball within
the Crimson five-yard line, must be
considered in every careful balancing

of the merits of the two teams. Har-
vard, of course, was deprived of the
services of Brickley, Pennock and Ma-
han, as an off-set to Michigan's weak
spots. In view of what did happen,
and the splendid showing Michigan
made, we wish, and we speak for all
good Michigan lovers of the game,
that Harvard's captain and her half-
back had been in the game, and that
Michigan's quarter and fullback had
been able to play their best game.
What a game that would have been!

Modern football
FORWARD PASSES promises t o justify
AND KICKS its name again. At

least the implication
of a certain amount of progress by the
aerial route is fulfilled through the in-
creasing use of the forward pass and
the recent emphasis on the drop kick
and punt, even though all of these
were conspicuous by their absence
from the Michigan offence in the Har-
vard game. Where once all was weight
and heavy mass plays, a few years
have brought us to another type of
game. flt There may have been
more science and finer points for
the critics to discuss at length in
the pounding type of play, but
surely a game calling for resource
and versatility, wit and accuracy is
fundamentally better. Now the em-
phasis on speed at least equals that on
weight. There was, of course, a cer-
tain impressiveness in the erstwhile
battering ram as it pounded down the
field three downs at a time, or two
downs and a kick, if the offensive
weight was insufficient. But it was
not interesting to the average specta-
tor. It was not always inspiring even
to the initiated. The change to four
downs in ten yards, and the first tenta-
tive introduction of the forward pass
did not change the game at once.
€C But further changes in the rules,
and at least one season of trying them
out has worked the reformation. New

plays w hich the opening of the present
season has brought to greater perfec-
tion, mark a new era. While the strat-
egy of the game and the fundamental
principles of attack and defense are
essentially the same, the tactics are
very different. The heavy plunge of
the old-fashioned flying wedge has
given place to a speedier, more ag-
gressive interference — and the for-
ward pass. It is all to the great ad-
vantage of the spectator. We only
wish the proposed plan for numbering
the individual players might be gen-
erally adopted. Nothing could be more
pleasing to the thousands of alumni
who only have an opportunity of see-
ing one or two games during the sea-
son.

CONCERNING

STADIA

The article in last
month's Alumnus on
Michigan's new sta-
d i u m as compared
with those now in course of erection
elsewhere, proves a timely supplement
to a well-illustrated article on "The
vStadium and College Athletics" by
Lawrence Perr)^ in the November
Scribne/s. Harvard, Syracuse, Yale,
Princeton, College of the City of New
York and the high school at Tacoma,
Wash., each have one of these big
amphitheaters, while Columbia, Cor-
nell and the University of Washing-
ton, in addition to Michigan, have
them building or projected. OL Quite
rightly the author of the article sug-
gests that the two million dollars ex-
pended on these structures makes the
question of their ultimate usefulness a
proper topic for discussion. He be-
lieves that they stand as monuments
to the importance of organized ath-
letic sports, and their recognition by
the college authorities who place them
on an organized basis as the only way
of proper control. The defense for the
erection of these structures against
the criticism of those who believe that
they place over-emphasis upon sport

as related to university life, is that, af-
ter all, they do not create that condi-
tion, but they are the logical results
of it. CD^The author maintains also that
intercollegiate sports have not grown
out of proi>ortion to college life, but
have grown with the size and imi>ort-
ance of the universities themselves,
and that the ratio has been equably
maintained. While perhaps there are
some who might not agree with this
statement, there are few who will not
acknowledge that, in the face of two
alternatives, the abolition of major in-
tercollegiate contests, or the handling
of them in an adequate and broad-
minded way, the proper solution is to
be found in the erection of these great
structures. Particularly is this so
when, as in the case of Michigan, the
final completion of the stadium rests
with the ultimate demand. The great
justification for the expenditure of so
much money is that they are bound to
pay for themselves in a short time, and
to do away, once for all with the great
annual waste, inevitable with tempor-
ary stands.

While the effects of
UNION CAMPAIGN the great war now
POSTPONED being waged are not

very immediate as far
as the University is concerned, in one
place it has had its serious effects. The
campaign for the new clubhouse for
the Michigan Union has been post-
poned indefinitely. This action is par-
ticularly unfortunate because the or-
ganization of the campaign was prac-
tically completed. Conmiittees had
been appointed all over the United
States and a corps of general repre-
sentatives had been selected to meet
with the alumni. All this machinery
is of course now made partially use-
less, for the present at least. C^ There
is a fortunate side, however, in so far
as the campaign had proceeded no
farther. It might have been much
more difficult to drop, once progress

had been made beyond a certain point.
The first solicitors in the field sent
back reports which indicated an in-
creasing hesitation to undertake the
campaign, on the part of local commit-
tees, while tel^^ms from the alumni
association in New York and other
eastern cities emphasized the necessity
for prompt action, which was accord-
ingly taken, to the great regret of ev-
everyone interested. OI^This postpone-
ment, however, does not mean the
abandonment of the idea. The organi-
zation is ready, and the campaign will
proceed as soon as the financial situa-
tion of the country warrants an ag-
gressive effort. Meanwhile, the
details of the organization will be per-
fected, and the Union will undoubted-
ly be that much stronger. The present
year shows no diminution in the stu-
dent constituency. The membership is
2,500 as against 2,670 for last year at
the present time. While this total
seems somewhat smaller, it must be
remembered that there are in addition
a hundred and fifty odd life members
who were included in last year's
total, so that the net result is a gain
for the present year.

EVENT IN BRIEF

A "Band Bounce," held the week
before the game in Hill Auditorium,
made it possible for the Band to ac-
company the team to Cambridge.
Nearly $1,200 was realized, enough to
send forty members of the organiza-
tion, and Mr. S. J. Hoexter, Faculty
director.

Fourteen women students are en-
rolled this year in the Engineering
Department of the University. Two
of these are members of the senior
class, one is a junior, three are sopho-
mores, and eight are freshmen. Just
half of the women are entered in the
Department of Architecture, while the
remaining seven are taking the regu-
lar engineering work.

To take care of the six thousand
odd students at the University, there
are now in Ann Arbor approximately
1,100 student rooming houses, and 53
student boarding houses. In addition,
there are at the present time 62 fra-
ternities, sororities and house clubs,
with accommodations for about 1,500
members.

Karl W. Zimmerschied, '03, M.S.
'04, opened the series of lectures to be
given this year by the Chemical En-
gineering Branch of the Engineering
Society with an address on "The Re-
lation of Metallurgy to Mechanics" on
October 20. Mr. Zimmerschied was
instructor in metallurgy and quantita-
tive analysis in the University from
1905 to 191 1, and is now chief metal-
lurgist for the General Motors Com-
pany of Detroit.

In connection with the University
Extension work, fourteen secretaries
of civic associations from various
cities in the State met in Ann Arbor
on October 17, to listen to a lecture by
Professor David Friday, of the Eco-
nomics Department. It is planned to
hold similar meetings on the third Sat-
urday in each month, when lectures
by different members of the Faculty
on civic problems will be given. Pro-
fessor Reeves, of the Political Science
Department, will deliver the next lec-
ture on Saturday, November 21.

David B. McLaughlin, grandson of
President Emeritus Angell, and* son
of Professor Andrew C. McLaughlin,
'82, '85/, A.M. (hon,) '96, died in Chi-
cago on October 16, from injuries re-
ceived last summer while diving. He
was a student in the University of
Chicago. Professor McLaughlin oc-
cupied the chair of American His-
tory in the University from 1891 to
1906, when he resigned to accept a
professorship in History at the Uni-
versity of Chicago. Interment was
made in the Forest Hill Cemetery,
Ann Arbor.

Dean M. E. Cooley, of the Engi-
neering Department was appointed by
President Hutchins as the official
representative of the University
at the Michigan smoker in Boston on
the eve of the Harvard-Michigan
game. President Hutchins had plan-
ned to be present, but the date con-
flicted with the annual meeting of the
Michigan State Teachers' Association
in Lansing.

Eight cases containing porcelain
ware for the Chemical Laboratory and
a few supplies for the Botanical De-
partment have been received by the
University out of the four or five hun-
dred ordered last March. They have
been in an insured warehouse in Ham-
burg since the outbreak of the war,
waiting for the first opportunity to
ship. The cases came by way of Cop-
enhagen, Denmark.

A special tax to pay the expenses
caused by the injuries received by
Russell Jacobs, *i8, when he was hazed
on the night of October 2, has been
levied on all the sophomore classes,
by action of the Student Council. With
one wrist broken and the other sprain-
ed, the freshman has been forced to
return to his home in Coshocton, Ohio,
and will probably miss a semester's
work in the University.

On account of alterations in the ad-
ministration of the scholarship sys-
tem at Oxford University, the trus-
tees of the fund have changed the
method of selecting Rhodes scholars
throughout the* United States. In the
past, scholars have been elected from
all the states for two successive years,
while in the third year none were
chosen. According to the new ar-
rangements, the elections will be
spread over three years, the scholars
being selected from thirty-two states
each year. For this purpose, the for-
ty-eight states have been divided into
three groups of sixteen each.

THE MICHIGAN ALUMNUS

[November

Work was commenced early in Oc-
tober on the construction of a new
bath house for the Michigan Union
Boat Club, under the direction of Al-
lan T. Ricketts, '15^, Plainfield, N. J.,
president of the Student Council. It
will be located just north of Tesse-
mer's boat house. The Boat Club also
plans to make extensive improvements
in the beach, and to dynamite the ruins
of the dam near the old mill, where
the majority of the accidents have oc-
curred.

The following nine men, seniors in
the Law Department, have been added
to the staff of the Michigan Law Re-
view for the coming year: John G.
Cedergren, North Branch, Minn.;
Charles Davidson, Great Falls, Mont. ;
Arend V. Dubee, Beloit, Wis.; Her-
bert H. Harshman, Manistique;
Charles J. Hilkey, Scranton, Kans. ;
Buell McCash, Bloomfield, la. ; Leslie
C. McClelland, Calumet ; Karl J.
Mohr, Pekin, 111.; and Henry Rott-
schaefer, Ann Arbor. The staff is
now complete, fifteen of the student
editors having been elected last spring.

Owing to the fact that the old Hom-
oeopathic Building was torn down last
spring to make way for the new Sci-
ence Building, the Homoeopathic De-
partment has been transferred to sev-
eral buildings which have been fitted
up for temporary quarters pending
the construction of the new building
on the Homoeopathic Hospital quad-
rangle. In the Prettyman house just
west of the Dental Building a nurses'
home has been provided, which con-
tains eighteen rooms for the accom-
modation of a part of the training
school, and a large lecture room for
the use of the College. Immediately
north of this building, the maternity
annex of the Homoeopathic Hospital
has been housed, with a new operating
room for septic cases exclusively. The
clinical laboratory, which has hereto-
fore been located in the basement of

the Hospital, has been removed to a
building arranged for its special ac-
commodation, and the brick house for-
merly occupied by the nurses has been
fitted up as an administration building,
where are located the offices of the
Dean, Registrar and Secretary. Ac-
commodations for one hospital interne
and for other Hospital relief are also
provided in this building. The com-
plete plant under the control of the
Homoeopathic Faculty now numbers
eight different structures, including
the two tuberculosis shacks, and the
Department has never been so well
equipped for carrying on its work.

The second annual Convocation Day
was set for Friday afternoon, October
16. Although a downpour of rain pre-
vented the procession of Faculty and
students around the Campus, Hill Au-
ditorium was well filled for the exer-
cises. After the organ prelude by
Professor A. A. Stanley, the invoca-
tion by Professor Emeritus M. L.
D'Ooge, and an address of welcome
by President Harry B. Hutchins, Dean
Victor C. Vaughan, of the Medical
Department, the speaker of the day,
talked on "The Nature and Purpose
of Education." The program closed
with the singing of 'The Yellow and
the Blue."

Presidents of the classes which held
elections during the past month have
been. chosen as follows: Senior liter-
ary: Harry G. Gault, Flint; junior
literary: George P. McMahon, De-
troit; sophomore literary: Willis D.

It has been announced by Superin-
tendent of Buildings and Grounds J.H.
Marks, '08^, that the new Power Plant
of the University will be ready for
work in the early part of December.
Two days will be set aside for the
formal opening and public inspection
of the new building when every detail
has been completed. The new plant
is as modem as that of any other uni-
versity in the country, and ranks far
above those in use at most of the other
schools. It is estimated that the plant
will consume between 13,000 and
15,000 tons of coal a year, and will
heat 2,500 gallons of water an hour.
The coal is shipped directly to the door
of the building by a spur track from
the Michigan Central. The cost of the
plant is $430,000.

Professor A. G. Ruthven, Profes-
sor of Zoology and Curator of the
University Museum, and Mr. Freder-
ick M. Gaige, '14, assistant in the Mu-
seum, returned this fall from an ex-
pedition on the Demerara River in
British Guiana with a, collection of
great value, espyecially to research
workers on the staff and to graduate
students. Professor Ruthven and Mr.
Gaige left Ann Arbor late in June,
and encamped with six natives on the
Demerara River, about thirty miles
from the coast. The country was cov-
ered with a dense jungle, the land was
so low and wet that they waded in
mud constantly, and it rained practic-
ally every day. As a result of this cli-
mate. Professor Ruthven was taken ill
with a jungle fever, similar to that
which overcame Mr. Roosevelt on his
Brazilian trip, and is still feeling the
effects of the attack.

Professor Fred N. Scott, '84, A.M.
'88, Ph.D. '89, head of the Rhetoric
Department, has presented to the Uni-
versity I^ibrary a large memorial vol-
ume of Groningen, Holland, which
was published to commemorate the
celebration of the three hundredth an-
niversary of the founding of Gronin-
gen University. It is written in the
Dutch language, and contains a his-
tory of Groningen University, with
photographs and descriptions of the
art collections at the University. Pro-
fessor Scott secured the volume while
he was attending the celebration as a
special representative of the Univer-
sity of Michigan.

Michigan has not only the largest
wireless station of any of the univer-
sities of the country, but also the larg-
est of any kind in the Great Lakes
region. It is of a ten killowat installa-
tion, while the wireless station at De-
troit, the largest commercial station in
this region, is only a two killowatt sta-
station. Michigan's set cannot com-
pare, however, with those of the big
transatlantic stations, which have a
one hundred and fifty killowatt instal-
lation. The University station is well
known about the country, and many
letters are received during the year
from commercial and amateur opera-
tors who have succeeded in picking up
the calls of the station. The station
has a regular operator, Dudley A.
Nichols, '18^, Wapakoneta, Ohio, and
it is hoped that two assistants can be
secured for him. In that case, the sta-
tion would be open every night dur-
ing the school year.

Madame Johanna Gadski, of the
Metropolitan Opera Company, opened

"ALBION POINTS A WAV

The very interesting proposal for a correlation of courses between
Albion College and the Engineering School of the University is noted in the
report of the Regents* meeting for October. Apropos of this plan the
Detroit Tribune for Sunday, November i, 1914, publishes the following edi-
torial :

Closer working connection among the finishing schools conducted by the state
is the dream of advanced educators in Michigan, and men that have a hand in the
state's government have spoken words in recommendation of a change. The point of
view of the educators is that of increased efficiency in education, that of the states-
men the removal of the evil of duplication in work as among the various institutions
— for duplication spells unnecessary expense and a tax that might by so much be
reduced.

None of the arguments for closer correlation of the University with the technical
colleges and the normal schools have glanced at the denominational colleges to bring
them into the plan. From the point of view of the man interested in the economies
of the case they lie apart, because they are denominational and any new program that
made for economy for them would not affect the state tax rate. Those persons who
are interested in the educational phase of the plan will note probably with satisfaction
that one of the denominational colleges has taken a step which brings these privately
conducted institutions into consideration.

Albion, largest of the denominational colleges in Michigan in respect to enrolled
students, has arranged an engineering course which, by consent of the University
Regents, becomes, in fact, a University course. It is to be a five-year course, the last
two years of instruction to be taken at Ann Arbor. Presumably the three years at
Albion will be devoted to the generalities of the subject and the finishing period
under Professor Cooley and his staff will be almost if not wholly technical.

Graduates of this curriculum probably will not attempt to advance the claim
of preparedness for practical work that graduates of the grinding, thorough engineer-
ing courses of the University can claim. It is understood, nevertheless, that they will
attain to the "B.S., Mich." Michigan graduate engineers are accounted among the
best in the country. Those who come up from Albion and graduate, however, ought
to attain a standing that will be superior to that derived from graduation at a good
many other engineering colleges of good repute.

If the chief benefit from this new arrangement appears to redound more to the
benefit of the Albion institution than to the University the fact is offset by the more
important fact that the state institution is to perform a substantial service in educa-
tion for some of its citizens. The arrangement between the governors of the two
institutions reflects credit upon both and promises much by way of example. If the
boards of control of various state institutions were to fall into the spirit of the plan
it might be that co-ordination in work among the state colleges and the university
could in large measure be brought about without waiting on legislatures and laws to
compel the improvement.

1914I THE HARVARD GAME 73

HARVARD^ 7; MICHIGAN, 0

Michigan's first game with Harvard in nineteen years resulted prac-
tically the same as the last previous contest between the two universities —
a victory for the Cambridge eleven by one touchdown. There was, however,
one decided difference between the performances of the two Michigan teams.
In 1895 the Wolverines went east with a veteran team, expecting to win ;
this time it was a green outfit that upheld the maize and blue, and the fight-
ing spirit exhibited by Captain Raynsford and his men under adverse cir-
cumstances was such as to make every student and alumnus more proud
than they have been in many a victory.

It was a noteworthy achievement to hold the veteran crimson team —
without Brickley, Mahan and Pennock though it was — as Michigan held it,
really forcing the fighting for over half the game, and gaining considerably

SPLAWN MAKING AN ON-SIDB KICK

The picture shows how close to the line of scrimmage he stood
The ball is in the air in front of him

more yardage than was covered by the home eleven. And the feat means
even more when we consider that, much as Harvard missed her three stars,
Michigan was seriously crippled by the injuries to Hughitt and Splawn,
suffered in the M. A. C. and Syracuse games respectively. Both these men
were able to last through the contest, it is true, but Michigan's plan of
battle had been of necessity entirely altered by reason of their condition.
Coach Yost knew that neither of them was likely to stand severe pounding ;
consequently he laid out a policy of attack which kept them out of the inter-
ference almost entirely, and allowed them to run with the ball but little.
Thus much of the time Michigan's offense was carried out by nine men
only, and one does not need to be an expert to realize what a handicap this
was.

In another respect than the one mentioned, the game was like that of
1895. Michigan had opportunities to win^r at any rate to score — ^but
failed to accept them. "Jii"i"y" Baird, who was the 1895 ^^1^ general, told
the big mass meeting the night before the game, how chances were missed

74 THE MICHIGAN ALUMNUS [November

HARDWICK (at the right of the goal i>08t) MAKING HARVARD'S TOUCHDOWN
The picture shows how Michigan's line was opened for the play

nineteen years ago, little thinking, no doubt, that the story would be repeated.
But it was, though it be said in no spirit of fault-finding. In contrast to
Michigan, Harvard accepted her one opportunity to score — and won the
game thereby. It would be unfair to the winning eleven to withhold credit
for that achievement. Equally would it be unfair to the Michigan players
to condemn them for what they did not do in the face of what they did do.

To review the game briefly by quarters: the first, with the wind and
sun in the Harvard men's faces, was all in Michigan's favor. The visitors'
attack seemed to take the easterners, experienced though they were, by sur-
prise, and Michigan here had her first chance to score. Fine plunging by
Maulbetsch and Lyons, despite the infliction of penalties, had carried the
ball to the three-yard line, Maulbetsch almost getting across on the last run.
An open play then resulted in a loss, and on last down what appeared to the
spectators at large to be a repetition of a double pass — which had succeeded
shortly before, was a failure, and the ball went over on downs. It was really
a forward pass play, but the signal was missed, and Splawn's effort to run
with the ball was foiled.

In the second quarter Harvard used the wind skillfully, and when well
into Michigan's territory worked a beautiful forward pass, Hardwick to
Smith. Shortly after this the versatile Hardwick carried the ball over on a
straight drive which found the Michigan line wide open, the Wolverines
having guessed wrong by anticipating the usual Harvard split formation.

The third quarter was decidedly Michigan's, though Harvard had the
wind. Maulbetsch showed a streak of ground-gaining that for consistency

and sustained power would be hard to equal. He took the ball on play after
play, finally placing it on Harvard's five-yard line, where, with one yard to
go for first down, the sturdy halfback was sent at the Crimson flank, where
Trumbull and Hardwick were stationed. He couldn't gain a foot, and the
ball went over. It was the last opportunity for Michigan.

Harvard played for time in the last quarter, but at the same time uncov-
ered the most impressive attack she showed during the contest, Hardwick
and the giant Francke playing havoc with the Wolverine forwards. The
final whistle ended play just after a forward pass had placed the ball on
Michigan's 25-yard line.

Taking the game as a whole, I would say that Harvard had the edge
as far as strategy was concerned, and in some respects showed the gfreater
football knowledge, man for man, which last is hardly to be wondered at
when it is remembered that seven of the Crimson players are three-year men,
while only four of the Wolverines won their "M's" last season, and but one
of these — Hughitt — was playing the same position he filled in 1913.

On offense, strange as it may seem, Michigan was more conservative
than the easterners. Hughitt called for but one forward pass, in addition to
the one which wasn't played through, while Harvard used four, making three
of them good. Both teams showed good strength at straight football, Maul-
betsch, Hardwick and Francke being the outstanding figures in this respect.
I think most of the spectators would agree that of the three, Maulbetsch
was the most impressive. He had to bear by far the greater share of the
burden for Michigan, as against the Crimson's star pair, who were given
some assistance also by Logan and Bradlee, yet he very rarely failed to gain.
Captain Brickley paid him what is a great compliment, coming from a Har-
vard man, when he compared his style of running to that T3f the former
Harvard fullback, Percy Wendell, who was selected for two or three All-
American elevens by Walter Camp.

All the credit, however, should not go to Maulbetsch. The Michigan
forwards, decidedly green in comparison to the Harvard linemen, did some
splendid work, bending back the Crimson wall, and blocking oflf the men in
grand style. During Michigan's marches down the field the Harvard tack-
les were given severe treatment. Benton, in his first big game, repeatedly
put the veteran Trumbull out of plays, and Staatz was also eflfective in this
way.

Harvard's running oflfense consisted largely of the split play through
the middle of the line. Toward the end of the fourth quarter Michigan left
the center open to this attack, instead of shutting it oflf by moving a man
up from the secondary defense, and it looked once or twice as if big Francke
would get loose. On one play particularly, he broke through with two or
three of his team-mates ahead of him, but either stumbled or was tripped by a
Michigan player trying to tackle him. With the aid of his interference, he
seemed likely on that play to get past Hughitt, but fortune was with Mich-
igan for the moment.

Harvard's forward passes were beautifully executed, the end running
diagonally to a point directly down the field from the place of scrimmage.

1914] THE HARVARD GAME 77

Hardwick threw the ball swiftly, and one catch at least, that by Smith pre-
ceding Harvard's score, was unusually difficult. The ball came low, and
the Crimson end scooped it off his shoestrings in regular Ty Cobb fashion.
Hughitt, who was coming up behind him, was nearer than any other Michi-
gan man, but had absolutely no chance to intercept the pass.

Neither side did much end-running, Hughitt and Splawn failing two
or three times, while Hardwick made a couple of gains. The Harvard ends
looked very good on breaking up this sort of thing, and in general play.

The kicking honors were rather in Harvard's favor, Francke showing
unexpected ability in this direction. Splawn got his punts oflf more quickly
than in some of the earlier games, and had none blocked. He sent some
long spirals down the field, but his average was not quite as good as that of
his opponents, who also placed their kicks finely. One from behind the goal
line was a particularly beautiful piece of work, setting Michigan back prac-
tically to the center of the field.

Many spectators were puzzled as to why Michigan allowed the Harvard
punts to drop. It was partly on account of the treacherous air currents in
the stadium, which make the ball do very queer things, but possibly even
more for the purpose of saving Hughitt. As a matter of fact, the scheme
woriced out pretty well, as the ball a number of times bounded back many
yards toward the Harvard goal after striking the ground.

The tackling on both sides was pretty sharp, though on a few occasions
Michigan men seized the runner too high. More penalties were inflicted on
the Wolverines than on the home eleven, and some few of the Michigan en-
thusiasts were inclined to charge partiality, but Coach Yost had no com-
plaint to make on that score, saying that he thought the work of the officials
very high class.

The defensive play of both teams brought individuals into the lime-
light. Reimann put up a stalwart game at tackle, and Captain Raynsford
did some very effective plugging of the holes in the line, from his position
behind it. For Harvard Weston spoiled a niunber of Michigan plays, and
Bradlee, backing up the line, tackled Maulbetsch time after time after the
latter was cleanly past the Crimson forwards.

It was quite laughable to hear the Boston people, even including some
who ought to have known better, talk about their disappointment because
Michigan didn't "uncork anything." They evidently expected to see a lot
of evolutions and gyrations that would fairly make the spyectators dizzy
looking at them. The more astute may have figured out by now that west-
em and eastern football aren't so different, after all, while the other sort
are probably much mystified still.

The occasion as a whole was one that will be memorable in Michigan
athletic annals. The five hundred or so enthusiasts from Ann Arbor, Chi-
cago and Detroit, augmented by hundreds of loyal alumni from the East,
made a fine showing in the stadium, even though vastly outnumbered in the
crowd of some 25,000. Michigan's cheering was magnificent, and the hearty
response to leader "Hap" Haff's calls for "yea's" for injured Harvard
players seemed much appreciated by the home spectators.

78 THE MICHIGAN ALUMNUS [November

The Varsity Band, in uniform, with yellow lined capyes, was applauded
to the echo, both before the game, during the intermission and at the end,
when it led the Michigan crowd in a march around the field to show Har-
vard that there were no "sore spots" and to indicate deserved appreciation
of the defeated team's game fight.

The spirit on both sides was most friendly and creditable in every way,
and it was generally felt that the two universities had gone far toward ce-
menting their former friendship. There was talk after the game — unofficial
talk, of course — that Michigan would play in Cambridge again next year,
and that Harvard would come to Ann Arbor in 1916. Some skeptics doubt
this latter, on the ground that it is distinctly against Harvard's traditional
policy, but there are many who think it may work out.

Many hospitalities were shown the visitors by the Harvard alumni and
students, and Coach Yost stated that he had never made a trip when more
careful consideration was shown for the comfort of the team by the athletic
authorities.

Mention should not be omitted of the mass meeting at the Copley Plaza
Hotel the Friday night preceding the game. This was in charge of the New
England alumni, who made a grtst showing, both of efficiency and enthusi-
asm, on this occasion. James M. Swift, '95, ex-attomey-general of Mass-
achussetts, presided, and Dean Cooley made the principal talk, in his inimita-
ble style. Other speakers were James O. Murfin, '95, '96/, of Detroit, "Bill"
Day, '00/, of Cleveland, "Jimmy" Baird, 'gSe, of Washington, D. C, Hugh
White, '99, *02/, of New York, William T. Whedon, '81, of Norwood, Mass.,
president of the New England Alumni Association, Henry J. Killilea, '85/,
of Milwaukee, President of the "M'' Club, and Coach Yost.

CHANGES IN THE FACULTY

Fewer changes than usual are to be noticed in the University Faculty
for the present year. Only eleven new members have been added to the
Senate, four of these coming to the University from other positions, while
seven are promoted from the rank of instructor to assistant professorships.
Professor Thomas J. MacKavanagh comes to the University from the Shaw-
inigan Technical Institute as Assistant Professor of Electrical Engineering,
while Dr. Rollo E. McCotter, who was an instructor in the Medical Depart-
ment from 1909 to 1913, has been called from Vanderbilt University to fill
the vacancy left by the resignation of Dr. George L. Streeter as Professor
of Anatomy and Director of the Anatomical Laboratory. Mr. James Bart-
lett Edmonson, the new State Inspector of High Schools, is of senatorial
rank, as is Dr. Alice Evans, who takes Miss Catherine Bigelow's place as
Director of Physical Education in Barbour Gymnasium.

Dr. Hugh M. Beebe was appointed last spring as Professor of General
Surgery in the Homoeopathic Department, succeeding Dr. Dean T. Smith.
A biographical sketch of Dr. Beebe, with his photograph, was published in
the Alumnus for last June.

1914] CHANGES IN THE FACULTY 79

Three assistant professors have been advanced to junior professorships,
Professor Lee Holt Cone who becomes Junior Professor of Organic Chem-
istry ; Professor Elmer Edwin Ware, who is made Junior Professor of Chem-
ical Engineering; and Professor Aaron Franklin ShuU, who is made Junior
Professor of Zoology.

The Regents have granted to Professor Rene Talamon, who was ad-
vanced from instructor in French to Assistant Professor of French, and who
is now at the front with the French army, an indefinite leave of absence. His
work will be carried by the other members of the French Faculty.

Professor Morris P. Tilley, of the English Department, is absent on
leave for the present year, and Professor John O. Reed, who resided this
fall from the deanship of the Literary Department, is still abroad. He and
Mrs. Reed are living at Jena. Dr. Claude A. Burrett, formerly Professor
of Surgery in the Homoeopathic Medical College, and Registrar of the Col-
lege, resigned his ix)sition with the opening of the college year, and is now
associated with the recently established Homoeopathic Department of Ohio
State University. Professors William A. Frayer and James G. Cumming
are also absent on leave.

Biographical sketches of the four new members of the Faculty follow :

Professor Albert Ross Bailey entered the Literary Department of the
University in 1899, changing in 1901 to the Engineering Department. In the
spring of 1903 he left the University to become draftsman and levelman for
the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern Railway, a position which he held
until March, 1905, when he became draftsman for the New York Central
and Hudson River Railway. In August of that same year he accepted a
position in the chief engineer's office of the Baltimore and Ohio Railway, and
in January, 1906, became chief draftsman in the Maintenance of Way
Department of the Lake Shore, with headquarters at Cleveland, Ohio. This
position he held for three years, resigning in 1909 to come 'to the University
as instructor in Surveying. He is now Assistant Professor of Surveying.

James Bartlett Edmonson, who has been appointed State High School
Inspector for Michigan, was bom in Parkersburg, Iowa, December 28, 1882.
Entering the University in 1902, he was graduated with the degree of A.B.
in 1906. Six years later he received his master's degree. For the year fol-
lowing his graduation he was assistant principal of the high school at Ionia,
Mich., and the next year he went to Hillsdale as principal of the high school.
In this position he remained for two years, spending the year 1909-10 in
Ann Arbor in the Graduate Department. During 1910-1911 he served as
principal of the Benton Harbor High School, going to Jackson as principal
of the high school there in the fall of 191 1. From this position he resigned
to accept his new office. Mr. Edmonson was married on August 25, 1914,
to Miss Bess Josephine Chase, of Cedar Rapids, Iowa.

Alice Evans, who comes to the University as Director of Physical Edu-
cation, was bom in 1883 in Chicago, 111. In 1905 she was graduated from
Smith College, and in 1912 from the Department of Hygiene of Wellesley
College. For the four years following her graduation from Smith College,
Miss Evans conducted classes in Hull House, Chicago, and after leaving
Wellesley in 1912 she taught in the Milwaukee Downer Seminary until

called to the University. The summers of 1913 and 1914 she spent in a
girls' camp in Algonquin Park, Canada.

Rollo Eugene McCotter, who returns to the University as Professor of
Anatomy and Director of the Anatomical Laboratory, was bom January 23,
1847, at Vermontville, Mich. He entered the Medical Department of the
University in the fall of 1904, and received the degree of Doctor of Medi-
cine in 1910. From 1899 to 1904 Dr. McCotter taught in the public schools
of Michigan. In the fall of 1906 he accepted the assistantship in Anatomy
in the University, and in 1909 he was made instructor in that subject. In
the spring of 19 13 he resigned his position in order to accept the professor-
ship of Anatomy, Histology and Embryology in Vanderbilt University. He
held this position until June, 19 14, when he resigned to become Assistant
Professor of Anatomy'at the University of Michigan.

Dr. McCotter has published the following papers : "On the occurrence
of pulmonary arteries arising from the thoracic aorta ;" "The connection of
the vomero-nasal nerves with the accessory olfactory bulb in the opossum
and other mammals ;" "The nervus terminalis in the adult dog and cat."

He was married in 1909 to Miss Erma Gertrude Harris, of Lawrence,
Mich. There are no children.

Thomas J. MacKavanagh, who comes to the University as Assistant
Professor of Electrical Engineering, was born in Bellshill, Lanarkshire,
Scotland, May 25, 1882. His education was received at the Royal Technical
College, Glasgow, Scotland, and the Nova Scotia Technical College, Hali-
fax, N. S. He holds the degree of Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engi-
neering, and is a member of the American Institute of Electrical Eng^eers
and the Nova Scotia Engineering Society. From 1905 to 1912 Professor
MacKavanagh was chief electrical engineer of the Anglo-American Tele-
graph Company and the Western Union Cable System on C. S. S. "Minia,"
Halifax, Nova Scotia. In 1912 he was called to the Shawinigan Technical
Institute, Shawinigan Falls, Province of Quebec, as head of the Electrical
Engineering Department, which position he resigned to come to the Uni-
versity of Michigan. From May, 1913, to September, 1914, he acted also
as research engineer for the Shawinigan Water and Power Company.

Professor MacKananagh is married, and has three children.

Short sketches of the men who have been promoted from instructor-
ships to assistant professorships are given below :

Frank Richard Finch, who becomes Assistant Professor of Descriptive
Geometry and Drawing, was born August 3, 1883, at Auburn, N. Y. Pro-
fessor Finch received his preparatory schooling at the Auburn Academic
High School, and was graduated from the Sheffield Scientific School of
Yale University with the degree of Ph.B. Since his graduation he has been
employed in the I^ehigh Valley Railway Shops, at Sayre, Pa., by the Franklin

TAPPAN MANUSCRIPTS IN THE UNIVER-
SITY LIBRARY

In connection with the placing in the Alumni Building, last June, of the
memorial tablet to our first president, Henry Philip Tappan, it seems fitting
to take some notice of his unpublished manuscripts in the University Lib-
rary.

After Dr. Tappan's death at Vevey, Switzerland, in 1881, the manu-
scripts came into the possession of his grandson. Dr. Rudolph E. Briinnow,
Professor of Semitic Philology in Princeton University.

While Mr. Charles M. Perry was pursuing the study of Dr. Tappan's
philosophy in connection with a thesis for the doctorate, it was suggested
by Professor Lloyd that access to these manuscripts be secured. Their
use was generously granted, and, on the request of the Librarian, in 1910,
Professor Briinnow gave them into the permanent possession of the Library
of the University of Michigan, asking in return but a tyi>ewritten copy,
which the Library was only too glad to make.

While they are now available for any one whose cause would justify
their use, they are safely housed in the fireproof vaults of the library of the
institution for which President Tappan did so much, and which has such
reason to venerate his memory.

The manuscripts, as given to us by Professor Briinnow, were mostly
in Dr. Tappan's own hand, and contained in seven packages, as follows:

I. A complete work on psychology, of 4S7 octavo pages.

]I. A metrical translation from the German of a considerable portion of Wil-
helm Jordan's "Nihelunge/' 7 booklets and fragments.

III. Various fragmentary articles: on universities, sheets 121-140; a "preliminary
essay," 32 pages; on immortality, 10 foolscap pages.

IV. Course of moral philosophy, 127 pages ; Cardinal Manning and Lord Redes-
dale (a letter to the Daily Telegraph), 33 pages; Importance of the study of Moral
Philosophy, 8 pages; on Greek literature, 4 pages; and other fragments.

V. Sermons. Two large, and nine small booklets.

VI. Several poems. An "Ode to the Mediterranean," 8 pages; "Nepenthe,"
a philosophical essay in blank verse, devoted to the soul's relation to the infinite; and
other pieces mostly incomplete, in all 39 pages.

VII. An essay on John Milton, 121 pages, large octavo.

Of these manuscripts, number I, the Psychology, is apparently suitable
for a course of lectures on the subject to students, and was probably so
used. Some of Dr. Tappan's students now living might be able to deter-
mine that question. Much of the matter in this work went into Dr. Tappan's
published book on Logic, which was copyrighted in 1855.

The translation of Jordan's "Nibelunge," while holding closely to the
original in thought and in form, is sufficiently free in idiomatic English to
draw the reader along with the true and easy swing of the epic poem.
Professor Briinnow's notation ascribes the translation to "the early seven-
ties," but there is some reason to think it might have been earlier. Volume
one of Jordan's work, (Sigfridsage), was published in 1868, and volume two

I9I41 TAPPAN MANUSCRIPTS 85

(Hildebrant's Heimkehr), in 1874. All that we have of Dr. Tappan's trans-
lation, songs 1-8, 10, and part of 22, belong to the first volume.

Wilhelm Jordan, in 1865, had translated into German Dr. Tappan's
memorial address on Abraham Lincoln, delivered at the American Church
in Berlin. A copy of this address, in the German version, was recently
secured and presented to the Library of the University by E. W. Pendleton,
'72, of Detroit.

If Dr. Tappan wished to return the compliment of a translation he
would be likely to do it soon after the appearance of the first volume of
the "Nibelunge," a complete "Lied" in itself, in 1868. The following lines
from the opening of the first song will serve to show with what sympathetic
force and fine imagination the philosopher's mind could turn to epic poetry.

"I dare to wander through ways long forsaken

In the far distant past of our people.

Awake then verse full of power and sweetness

To which Nature the mother of beauty and music

Has fashioned the soul and the speech of the German;

As the thrush and the bullfinch taught by her instinct

Pour forth their love songs from bush and from brake.

But how died away this melodious measure,

Do you ask all astonished?

Then hear how it died and how again it has risen."

There are a nuntber of fragmentary pieces of verse, some of which leap
with true lyric lightness of foot, but they generally carry a somewhat heavy
weight of thought. The subjects of these poetic impressions are mostly
European scenery, especially of Italy, and one is inclined at first to refer
them to Dr. Tappan's trip to Europe which he described in so interesting
a manner in the two volumes entitled *'A step from the new world to the old
and back again," published in 1852. Whether written at that period or dur-
ing his later residence in Europe, they show the philosopher and educator
impelled to give his fancy restful flights, and to look on life from a vacation
point of view. A good illustration of this state of mind is his "Ode to the
Mediterranean." From its 130 lines the following may be quoted :

"How sad the desolation of thine isles
And of thy classic consecrated shores
Where Heaven bestows its most benignant smiles
And yields to faith all that the heart adores,
Where all that elevates, adorns, inspires
Their origin and bright examples find,
Where Homer and Isaiah struck their lyres,
And Socrates and Jesus taught mankind."

The essay on John Milton is^f such fonn and -length as to be suitable
for public lectures or addresses. Although conservatively orthodox in his
religious and philosophical ideas. Dr. Tappan exhibits such a vigorous and
appreciative admiration for Milton, who has not generally been regarded
as theologically orthodox, that he seems to have run close to the verge of
inconsistency with his own philosophy. This is especially noticeable with
r^^ard to the "Areopagitica," and the right of liberty of thought in general.
Milton's theories of education he approves and adopts with few qualifica-

tions, and passes them on with such lauds and commendation, that it is easy
to perceive that not all the ideas which he put into university education in
this country had come from Germany. The following extract from this
essay may serve to emphasize his attitude:

"Alas! The age in which he (Milton) lived had not 'spirit and capacity enough
to apprehend' his rational and lofty teachings. Nor yet have his countrymen
advanced to the form and method which he expounded to them. The Universities,
have been but partially reformed, no Gymnasium has come into existence, and no
general system of popular education has been adopted. But other nations have
received the light, and heard the voice.''

Although the philosophic thought of Dr. Tappan*s day has yielded in
some ways to the evolutionary pressure of the passing years, there is much
in these manuscripts besides the personality of a great thinker that is of
value and should be made more accessible to the future student.

There has been some talk of a "Tappan Book" to be issued by the
University of Michigan. It would be a credit to the University and to be
desired from their own importance if these papers could be preserved in
printed form, a memorial to our great first president whose name we hold so
dear and whose memory we love to honor.

I9I4] OPENING ADDRESS 87

OPENING ADDRESS IN THE MEDICAL
DEPARTMENT*

When I was asked to give the address for the opening of the Medical
College I cast about for a subject, but could find none with well defined out-
lines, none that I could build up in concrete form with a limiting wall about
it, for my thoughts constantly reverted to the medical student and the
more I thought the farther away like the distant approximation of two
parallel lines seemed the ultimate boundary of what we might call the
horoscope of the medical student. So my remarks must be abstract, touch-
ing only the points which appeal to me as the essential ones for you as
students and practitioners of medicine, for us as your teachers and pilots
through what may be at times the stormy seas of your preliminary training.

We are all the products of others. None of us are original. We owe
our conformation of body to our progenitors or to the aflfHctions we may
have endured in our infancy. Our state of mind we owe to our early
training and our subsequent environment, our religion or our lack of it.
We develop complexes which make us antagonistic to certain doctrines,
advocates of others. These complexes are unconsciously cultivated. For
this reason we have a feeling of antipathy for John Jones when in reality
John is a good reliable citizen and may possess infinitely finer qualities than
we do ourselves. We become biased. After a time, through some unfor-
seen circumstance, we are brought into more intimate association with John
and we begin to realize that our apparent antipathy was based i-:pon an
acquired complex, and we recognize as if by discovery that in reality John
is a perfectly good fellow. So in the beginning of your medical work get
your state of mind right. Try to be normal. If you split your infinitive
when you write don't do it when you think. If you have an antagonism
for a certain subject and you think it is not necessary for your future success
in medicine, remember your experience with John Jones. It may be that
there is a good reason for the detested course, that it is a stepping stone to
the acquirement of a more difficult problem later on and that after all it is
a perfectly good course and you would not have missed it for anything.

As you have been told before you. are all here for hard work, the
hardest work any student can take up. If your foundations are well laid
your superstructures can be maintained. Should a flaw occur later on it
can be mended more easily. Begin your work with the knowledge that
every required course in the curriculum is absolutely essential for the
complete and successful rounding out of your medical education. Remember
that it is for you that this medical school has been developed, for you that
we seek to advance our science and make our knowledge more exact. You
are our pride or our shame. You are the end reaction of all our efforts —
the saving of humanity, the redemption of man. We, many of us, labor in
our laboratories for months or years to establish a single abstract fact which
we can give to you in a few words, glad as payment if it may be added to

our storehouse of knowledge. You, most of you, will be in the field apply-
ing the sirni total of the knowledge that has come only through the unceas-
ing efforts of, possibly, some unpopular teacher.

So once more let me recall to you that after inheriting a sound mind
in a sound body you are all that you are through your contact with
others. Marcus Aurelius, fully realizing the significance of this fact, records
in his meditations "what and of whom whether parents, friends, or masters,
by their good examples, or good advice and counsel, he had learned." His
illustrious career was moulded and shaped by his contact with others. From
his grand father he learned to be gentle and to refrain from all passion.
From his mother he learned to be religious, and bountiful. From Diognetus
he acquired a contempt for superstition. From Rusticus he learned that
his life needed some "redress, and cure," and to despise display and ostenta-
tion; from Apollonius unvariable steadfastness and to regard nothing,
though ever so small, but right and reason. Of Apollonius he also learned
how to receive favors of kindness (as commonly they are accounted) from
friends so that he might not become obnoxious to them, nor more yielding
upon occasion than in right he ought. From Sextus he learned tolerance
for human f railities.

Living in a wicked and sensual age, the ruling spirit of a great and
glorious empire, subject because of this to the greatest of temptations, he put
into effective practice those principles acquired from his associates and be-
came the greatest "moral phenomenon" of all time. I might go on extoling
the virtues and the greatness of this wonderful pagan but I only wish to fix
the point if I may that each one of us, surely though unconsciously, is part
Vaughan, part de Nancrede, Lombard, Novy, Huber, and part those who
have pressed some fact, or truth, or method, or mental attitude permanently
into his cosmos before he attains his degree, his permission to practice their
teachings, much of which is their own creation and much of which they too
have acquired from others.

If we as teachers press our subjects upon you with apparently too
much vigor, it is only because we honestly believe and know that it is
necessary in order to turn out a good product, and to keep our school in
the vanguard of medical teaching, — ^to keep our school so that you will
be, as others have been in the past, proud to have the consciousness, though
we write it not after our names, that our degree is M.D. Ann Arbor.

Patriotism to your alma mater is one of the first principles you should
endeavor to have instilled into you. The man without it, whether student
or teacher, is in a sad plight. Michigan offers to you a perfectly normal
education in medicine. You are bound by no ism, no pwithy, no creed except
the moral code. You are curtailed by no narrowness, no superstitions, no
envy, no hatred. You are set adrift with the knowledge that your founda-
tions are sound and that you have been taught nothing you can ever be
ashamed of. Truly "no pent up Utica contracts" your "powers, the whole
boundless (world) is yours." Be loyal in your class work. Be proud
that you are a freshman. Be anxious to make your freshman class the
best freshman class that ever entered college. If it is the best there will be

no question about the senior class. If your brother student has trouble in
making the grade, out of pride for your class and ambition to make your
Michigan degree mean still more to you and to the world, lend him a helping
hand. If he is a sloth help him out of your class, he will always be a
discredit to you. But be sure your diagnosis is correct before your vis
atergo is put into action.

You seek a medical education perhaps, because there is something
fascinating about it for you. Because you have a desire to be of use to
humanity. You may have come to the conclusion that medicine is the most
far reaching profession, that its scope is broader than any other. *You
come to this conclusion because you have made the observation, that all
scientific knowledge has an application in medicine, and that a full knowl-
edge of the arts, is essential to the culture necessary to cope with its various
humanistic ramifications. You seek a medical education to make a liveli-
hood. This is assured you if your work has been well done. What you
can never do is to take up medicine as a cold business proposition and gain
the regard, the esteem, the love, and the warmth of friendship of your
patients. Your patients become your friends. The man without friends
is to be pitied as is also the man without an enemy. **Praestat amicitia
propinqiiitati/' There is no profession which brings more joy per hour
than the one you have chosen, and there are so frequently twenty-four
hours in the day. A life of service is held up to us as the ideal life. It is
better to give than to receive. "It is better to be of service even to the bad
for the sake of those who are good, than to fail the good on account of
the bad." It is better "to be of use rather than to be conspicuous."

Of thoroughness may I say a few words. If you care to be a master
or to make true success of your profession, the smallest detail of your work
must be done with thoroughness. We see in the trades, in the over-organized
union labor of today, the disappearance of the master workman; the dis-
appearance of the motive which prompts a man to make himself a master.
This spirit is contagious but as yet it has penetrated only slightly into
professional occupations. The average doctor wants to excel. He is not
content to stop his education when his license to practice is given him.
He cares more about curing his patient, rather he cares more about seeing
that his patient is cured, than he does about collecting his fee. So long as
this spirit predominates he will have the desire to be thorough in his work.
To be thorough in medicine means that in the ever alluring present we
do not forget the past. May I illustrate by one or two examples. The
Roentgen ray has brought to us, within quite recent years, a means of put-
ting ourselves in possession of some indisputable facts. We look at a chest,
we see the pathology perhaps at a glance. We begin to depend upon this
quick, positively recorded method of examination and become indifferent
about our physical signs. We look at the abdomen. We are brought face to
face with conflicting findings. By the old method we reasoned about the
position of the stomach, its motility, its size and its conformation from an
entirely different viewpoint. There is a temptation to neglect the old, the
well tried methods. We revise our viewpoint and sometimes forget, that

the facts proven in the past must ever be our basis for sound reason in the
future. Too frequently the student is lured by the picture, the spectacular,
the something tangible, the positive. He goes away from the clinic filled
with enthusiasm over having seen some horrible distortion of the body by
a disease which has progressed beyond the peradventure of a possible cure.
It is sometimes hard to interest him for example, in the man who appears
ner\'ous, who complains of gastric distress, but presents only so called no7-
mal stomach findings. He may not appreciate that this poor fellow is really
complaining of the symptoms of a definite disease, a "wonderful clinic"
in the making, but now uninteresting in the curable stage.

So in practice the doctor may not realize that his nervous, vomiting
patient, with a hyperacidity is just beginning a stage in a disease which may
now be arrested, but which in a very short time may be beyond all human
aid. While the doctor was engrossed in his gastric analyses, in the manipu-
lations of his new gyromele, his intragastric bag, his duodenal cathetar, his
stomach bucket, his gastrodiaphane, and his bismuth meal, fascinated by the
spectacular, the something tangible, he ignored the patient's slight complaint
of rheumatic pains in his legs ; he forgot to tap his patient's knee and look
at his eye ; he continued to wash his patient's stomach until the patient, no
better from this painstaking care, drifts into other hands, and it is found that
his knee jerk is gone, his pupils react to accommodation but not to light, his
urine starts hard, and his spinal fluid counts lOO cells to the cubic millimeter.

Tlie careful physical examination and the carefully taken history are
the back bone of medical success. Omit them if you will, your sin will
surely find you out. The mistakes we all make come when we neglect our
routine work. I have the greatest pity for the student who shirks his
laboratory work and his physical examinations. H he is to become perfect
in any of his work he must have made more examinations than can possibly
come to him in his short clinical years. The student too often assumes the at-
titude of once shown always known. Too often in percussion he delights to
make a noise. Too often he is interested in the blowing breathing, not in
the finer changes which precede it. Too often he shows little regard for
fonn in his methods of work but is a stickler for it in golf and football.
Any one can make a noise. Any one can hear a sound. But it takes a
Mozart to compose and execute a symphony, a Skoda to interpret the signs
of percussion and auscultation. Try to be a master! Try to perfect your
methods and your interpretation ! We often hear of a man being a won-
derful musician, a perfect operator. How frequently do we hear it said he
is a wonderful percussor. Why is this? Is it because there are none who
have peculiar ability in this direction or is it because there are only a few
who have progressed far enough in this art to be able to judge. If you are
studying scarlet fever, or measles, or typhoid, do not be satisfied with
knowing the symptoms and the diagnostic signs. Any one can learn these.
It does not even require a degree in medicine to know them. Theorize a
bit! Wonder why the rash of scarlet fever is uniformly red and that of
measles mottled, why the typhoid belly has rose spots and that of typhus
rose and blue. If somebody does not wonder we shall never know. There
is never a time in your medical training when you cannot begin to develop^

a creative genius. The building of medical air castles is good training. It
carries you beyond the known into the unknown. Of course your castles
will fall but that need not deter you, for all men of thought build them and
see them fall.

"For a* sage he looks, what can the laddie ken?

He's thinkin upon naething, like mony mighty men;

A wee thing makes us think, a sma' thing makes us stare;

There are mair folks than him biggin castles in the air."

The day is not far distant when it will be your absolute skill, not your
glitter, that will draw men to you. The public is rapidly getting educated
in matters pertaining to health. The man in the country as well as the man
in the city will insist upon having the very best medical aid there is. The
poor will resort to well organized dispensaries where they have the assurance
that the social service workers will see that their cases are put into skillful
hands. The doctor who hangs up his shingle and gives cheap medicine for
the pittance he may exact from the poor will cease to exist and the world
will be that much better. But a word of caution is necessary. While per-
fecting yourself in one field of your undergraduate work do not do it at the
expense of others. Only after you have completed your course, can you, in
justice to your self and those you hope to care for, afford to favor one
subject more than another. The danger of this is taught us by the exper-
iences of the past. In the days of Skoda, as one of his biographers puts it,
''practical medicine degenerated into simple diagnosis. By his observations
on the 'natural course of disease undisturbed by therapeutics' he became the
•direct and proper founder of a purely expectant or nihilistic therapeutics in
Germany, and the author of a cheerless period in clinical practice. During
this period instead of conceding (as would have been just) that, practical
medicine can lay claim to only a slight active influence, it finally became an
obligatory rule of faith to plead for the complete impossibility of any medical
influence upon diseases, — and to manage at the bedside accordingly. Hence
it .resulted that university professors and clinicians, ■ followers of Skoda,
were able to make extremely nice, so-called exact diagnosis, but could no
Ipnger write a prescription, though they had for pupils future practicing
physicians alone, who accordingly from the outset must regard themselves
^s mere superfluities or imposters."

Of humanity a few words may not be amiss. It is human to be selfish,
to be antagonistic, to be spiteful, to be superstitious, to be apprehensive.
These traits of humanity are handed down to us from our simian ancestors.
It is human to be kind, tolerant, forgiving, magnanimous, trustful, full of
faith, compassionate. These traits have come to us through our association
with those who are dear to us, through our touch with the softening in-
fluences of home, time, and the sorrows we may have endured. Who comes
<iuite so close to the sorrows of life and administers more to them than the
physician. Who knows better the uplifting effect of a kind word. Who
more than the physician has learned

"To look on nature, not as in the hour

Of thoughtless youth; but hearing often times

The still, sad music of humanity."

I^ok for the medical man who is doing the most good, who is making
the greatest real success of life. He will be found to be the man who has
abundant kindness and unselfishness. The man who becomes great uncon-
sciously. The man who seeks not public applause for his successful per-
formance of duty according to the most approved methods. How often do
we see men of ability fall short of true greatness because of the failure to
subdue some human fraility.

As in science, in art, so in humanity this university offers you a lab-
oratory to work in. Do not neglect to make use of it. Do not forget that
the patient entrusted to your care has the same human feelings as your
mother, your sister, your brother. The illy clad woman sobbing, perhaps
hysterically, in the waiting room needs a kind word. Her little world is as
real to her as is ours. Her depth of feeling is the same.

In a big hospital like ours where hundreds of sick people are being cared
for daily we rely more or less upon you for their care. When a case is
assigned you, work it up expeditiously. By so doing you may save your
patient much mental or physical pain. Nowhere quite so much as in a
hospital should our motto be — work first, play last. Do not slam the door.
Do not walk heavily through the sick rooms. Do not talk loudly in the cor-
ridors. Let us not fail to sense the importance of silence in a hospital.
If we do we may fail in the same thing in private practice. Silence and
gentleness should pervade the hospital. The successful hospital manage-
ment brings this about, but it cannot be brought about without your co-
operation.

In closing may I add a few words about practice. You will each need
a hospital year after graduation. This offers you a year free from the grind
of class work, and an opportunity to get in closer touch with your profession
and your patients. From the standpoint of business success you cannot
afford to go without it. You cannot enter upon your interne service with
too much seriousness. Endeavor to assume responsibility rather than to
shift it. Be sure the group of patients entrusted to your care is the best
cared for group in the hospital.

In practice as in the hospital the uppermost thing in your minds should
be the welfare of your patients. You must not be discouraged if your
patients sometimes forget to appreciate this fact. There is an old proverb
which says — ^happy is the physician who is called in at the end of the dis-
ease. You will meet with this experience and it may balance the heart-
ache which may have come to you when a patient or his friends fail to see
the happy outcome of the work you have initiated.

Be sure you know your limitations. It is best for us all to learn early
in our careers that as "no man can climb out beyond the limits of his own
character" so he cannot climb out beyond the limits of his own knowledge.
Medical knowledge has progressed within recent years with such leaps and
bounds that it is an utter impossibility for one man to compass it all. Most
of you will go into general practice. I am still old fogy enough to
believe that no matter what branch of medicine or surgery you may take
up, all of you should, for the sake of yourselves and your patients, go into
general practice for a time. I think you will make a better specialist if you

do. If you do this there are four subjects you must know thoroughly.
They are internal medicine, the principles of surgery, diseases of children,
and obstetrics. The supreme effort of the medical college should be to
see that there is no question about your knowledge of these subjects. If
you master these you will be master of the situation so far as your life as
a physician is concerned. The man who perfects himself in surgery cannot
find time to perfect himself in internal medicine, and likewise the man who
endeavors to perfect himself in internal medicine cannot perfect himself as a
surgeon. If he tries to do all some one must suffer for it. There is a very
clean line between expert medicine and expert surgery. But we all fully
appreciate the force of the saying of our much honored and beloved pro-
fessor of surgery, — I am a medical man who operates.

You will hear a great deal abouf medical ethics as if they were different
from any other ethics. This subject can be summed up in two words
common courtesy. Adhere to this principle. It really matters very little
to you if your professional brother fails to appreciate it. He is the one to
be pitied and the world will go on pitying him. The sad part about it is that
he will not know it. Such men frequently go down to death with a chip
unremoved from their shoulder. I would that I could exhort you to be big
in spirit, to be normal in thought and action, to be steadfast in purpose.

"If you can keep your head wlien all about you

Are losing theirs and blaming it on you;
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,

And make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,

Or being lied about don't deal in lies,
Or being hated don't give way to hating,

And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise.

If you can dream and not make dreams your master;

If you can think and not make thoughts your aim,
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster

And treat those two imposters just the same,
If you can bear to hear the truth youVe spoken

Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools.
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken.

And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools.

If you can make one heap of all your winnings

And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings

And never breathe a word about your loss ;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew

To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you

Except the Will which says to them: Hold on!
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,

Or walk with Kings — nor lose the common touch.
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,

If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute

With sixty seconds* worth of distant run.
Yours is the earth and everything that's in it.

And— which is more— you'll be a Man, my son.''

ATHLETICS

HARVARD. 7; MICHIGAN. 0

Michigan went down to a glorious de-
feat on Soldiers' Field at Cambridge on
October 31st, when her inexperienced Var-
sity held the veteran Harvard eleven to a
7 to o score.

The first and third quarters belonged all
to Michigan, for it was then that Michigan
' twice marchfed down the field, straight to-
ward a touchdown. Save for the few
minutes that Harvard was making her lone
5core in the second period, Michigan was
doing the best work. The first part of the
last quarter was Michigan's, but in the last
few minutes of play, Harvard began an-
other onslaught on the Varsity goal, which
was stopped on the 2S-yard line by the call
of time.

Head Coach Fielding H. Yost claimed
after the game that his team should have
won, and laid the defeat to errors in the
selection of plays when the men were twice
within easy striking distance of touch-
•downs.

In the first quarter hard plunges by
Maulbetsch and short dashes by the other
Michigan backs, took the ball to the Crim-
son 5-yard line. Here a forward pass was
signaled on the fourth down, but Splawn
mixed signals and tried to run with the
ball. He was downed behind his line, and
Lyons, standing far back of goal line, never
received the ball.

On the other occasion, in the third period,
Hughitt called for an unassisted line buck
by Maulbetsch for the fourth down, and
the half back was stopped. Both of these
plays were of the type which usually take
the heart out of a team, but each time the
Varsity came back fiercely to the attack.
It was only the equally stubborn resistance
of the skillful Harvard defense which
blocked the Wolverines.

Harvard made the only touchdown of the
game in the second quarter through the
medium of a series of hard plunges and a
successful forward pass. This latter play,
in which Smith made a spectacular catch of
the throw from Hard wick, seemed to de-
moralize Captain Raynsford and his men
for the moment, and they did not rally in
time to block the final smash through the
line which took Hardwick over for the win-
ning? touchdown.

Much to the surprise of the 25,000 people

assembled to watch the intersectional game,
the Michigan team failed to show its
heralded open attack. Coach Yost was as
much disappointed as the spectators. The
success of Maulbetsch, pronounced phe-
nomenal by eastern critics, in piercing the
Harvard line by his smashing plunges, per-
liaps drove all thought of open play out of
the minds of the Varsity field leaders.
Maulbetsch carried the ball farther on
plunges than the whole Harvard backfield,
and was easily the star player on the grid-
iron in the intersectional battle. Walter
Camp, the noted eastern expert, sitting on
the sidelines, spoke of the Michigan half-
back as the best plunger whom he had ever
seen. As a result of these words of praise
by the man whose All-American is each
year considered the most authentic, Michi-
gan rooters are looking to see Maulbetsch
named for this mythical eleven.

The game was a triumph for Yost and
his coaching methods. Despite the fact
that he was forced, in laying his plans for
the game, to really waste Hughitt and
Splawn on account of their injuries, he
evolved an attack and defense which events
proved should have won the victory. H
the Varsity had but possessed the final
"punch" inside the Crimson lo-yard line,
two scores would have been marked up for
Michigan. Harvard had this ability and
made the score necessary to win.

The Varsity line showed to surprising
advantage in front of the veteran Crimson
forwards. The Coach had evolved a for-
mation which put nine Michigan mtn on
the line, and by this means an offense was
built up which opened up holes for Maul-
betsch and the other Michigan backs.

On defense, the Yost formations were
effectual in stopping the Harvard backs
when rightly used. The reason for the
Crimson touchdown was the abandonment
of the formation which the Michigan coach
had evolved to meet the famous Harvard
split buck. The Michigan guards were the
weakest parts of the line, but the tackles
and ends played far better than had been
expected. Benton, working against the
Crimson captain and Smith, stopped Har-
vard end runs many times. Reimann was
the chief bulwark in the Varsity defense,
his . ability to break through the Harvard
line costing the Crimson many yards.

Michigan's chief weakness was in get-
ting down the field under punts. While
the Harvard ends were able to down Hugh-
itt in his tracks on practically every kick,
the Crimson receiver of Splawn's punts
made up many yards each time the Mich-

JOHN MAULBBTSCH

igan full back kicked. Benton was blocked
•off easily, and it was generally a Michigan
lineman who finally tackled the runner.
Dunne proved a good tackier under punts
in the short time he was in the game.

The game by quarters was as follows :
FIRST QUARTER.

Michigan made the first gain of the game when
-Captain Raynsford won the toss for position. He
chose to defend the west goal, putting the slight
breeze at his back and forcing the Crimson team
to face the blinding sun.

Withington kicked off to Splawn who returned
the ball to the 30-yard line before he was downed.
If aulbctsch was the . man selected to carry the

ball first for Michigan, and he made 5 yards
through the center of the Harvard line. Two
more plunges, with I^yons and Maulbetsch carry-
ing the ball in order, made the initial first down
for tlie Varsity, and the Michigan rooters in the
stands cheered wildly.

Splawn and Maulbetsch made one more first
down before the Michigan progress was stopped,
with Acting Captain Trumbull as the chief cause.
On an exchange in the middle of the field, Splawn
tried a couple of on-side kicks, but the failure
of I^yons to take advantage of the opening, left
Harvard in possession of the ball.

On their first attempt of the game at carrying
the ball, Harvard fumbled and Hughitt pounced
on the ball on the Crimson 40-yard line. An
exchange of punts followed, with the Varsity
finally getting the ball on the Harvard 47-yard
line. Here started the Michigan march to the
Crimson goal line. Hughitt made 7 yards on
a squirming run past the Harvard right guard,
Lyons made several yards more, and then Maul-
betsch dashed through on a fake forward pass
play, taking the ball to the ii-^ard line. Three
plavs, with Maulbetsch as the chief ground gainer,
took the ball to the 5 -yard line.

But here a forward pass play went amiss when
Splawn mixed the signals and the ball went to
Harvard on downs, and was punted out of danger.

SECOND QUARTER.

Lyons started the play in the second quarter
with a good gain, but on the next two plays
Michigan was assessed penalties of 20 yards for
holding and for off-side. An exchange of punts
followed, with Harvard gaining a distinct ad-
vantage.

Harvard made a first down on Michigan's 30-
yard line, and then a forward pass, Hardwick to
Smith, put the ball on the Varsity 19-yard line,
and the Michigan goal seemed in danger for the
first time in the game. Three hard plunges by
Francke, mixed with a smash Vy Hardwick, made
it first down against the stubborn Michigan de-
fense, and then another play by Francke through
the line put the ball on the Michigan 6-yard line.
With Captain Raynsford using an open defense,
a split buck put Hardwick over for the Crimson
touchdown. He kicked goal and the score stood
Harvard 7, Michigan o.

Splawn kicked off, sending the ball behind the
Harvard goal line. The Crimson elected to scrim-
mage on the 20-yard line, and a series of punts,
with a few plunges mixed in, put the play in
Michigan territory. Once Hughitt called for a
forward pass, but the ball slipped off Lyon's hands
into the arms of Logan. Shortly afterward a
brief series of plunges by Maulbetsch and Splawn
>ut the ball on the Crimspn side of the field, but

chigan was forced to punt, and the half ended
with the ball near the middle of the field.

THIRD QUARTER.

The first part of this quarter was a punting duel,
with Harvard kicking at the first opportunity, and
the Varsity trying each time- to start a dash
toward the Harvard goal line. Maulbetsch was
successful on the majority of his trials.

After Splawn had punted over the Crimson
goal line, the Varsity got the ball near the middle
of the field and started on the second march down
the field. Maiclbetsch carried the ball five out of
every six times, with Splawn and Lyons helping
him a little. By steady rushes the ball was
taken inside the Harvard lo-vard mark, and it
was fourth down with 3 yards to go. A final
unassisted plunge by Maulbetsch failed to make
the distance, and Francke punted out of danger.
FOURTH QUARTER.

With the ball on the Pfarvard 3S-yard line, two
plunges by Lyons and Maulbetsch made it first
down and another advance to the Crimson goal
seemed started. But «ne of the officials had seen
a Michigan man holding, and Splawn was forced
to punt. Neither side again threatened to score.

although just at the end of the game Harvard
was rushing toward the Varsity goal line. Both
teams adhered closely to the punting game, and
this time Splawn held his own with the powerful
Hardwick. One of Splawn's punts put the ball
on the Harvard 1 6-yard line, but Watson let
Hard wick past for a 12-yard gain, and the Crim-
son was out of danger. Splawn's last punt put the
ball on Harvard's 20-yard line and the Crimson
started a last onslaught on the Michigan line.
Plunges by Hard wick and Francke, coupled with
a 15-yard forward pass from Hardwick to Cool-
idge put the ball on the Michigan 25-yard line just
as time was called for the end of the game.

MICHIGAN. 69; CASE. 0

For three quarters of the game against
Case on October 3, the Varsity backs scored
points for Michigan at the rate of two each
minute. But in the final period, with a
maze of substitutes in the line-up, the total
dropped down to less than one every sixty
seconds, and the grand total showed a count
of 69 to o for the 40 minutes of play.

It was a veritable procession for the Var-
sity. Long gains by the backs were the
rule rather than the exception. Splawn,
Maulbetsch, Catlett and Hughitt shared the
honors in this respect, all of them attack-
ing the ends and the middle of the line with
equal effectiveness.

It required 3}^ minutes of play to ne-
gotiate the first score. After this opening
had been made the scoring was so fast that
the time-keepers lost track of statistics.
Ten touchdowns was the total made by the
Varsitj', and nearly every man who claimed
the privilege of carrying the ball was num-
bered among those who made the 6 points
by going over the last Case line.

The Varsity linemen were at their best
in this game, getting into the interference
like veterans. Their good work at block-
ing off the secondary defense was largely
responsible for the effectiveness of the
backfield men in getting away for their
long runs. During the few moments when
Case had the ball in her possession, the
Wolverine forwards were particularly

effective in breaking through and mussing
up the plays before they were started. At
not a single point in the game did the visi-
tors even threaten to make progress with
the ball, practically the whole game being
played in Case territory.

Catlett's performances, while he was in
the game, were the principal features. Once
he came very close to running the entire
length of the field after the kick-off, but a
Case tackier dashed up behind the dodging
Wolverine and downed him. Hughitt was
close behind Catlett with long, wriggling
runs, his best work coming in the handling
of punts.

One of Michigan's touchdowns was made
with but one play after the kick-off. The
Varsity back took the ball from the Case
man's toe and ran it far back into hostile
territory. On the next play Hughitt dashed
around the end for the final run to the
score.

MICHIGAN. 27; MT. UNION. 7

Mount Union was the first team to score
on the Varsity during the present season,
when they succeeded in scoring a touch-
down in the last few minutes of play,
through the medium of a series of forward
passes which took the ball through the
darkness past the last Michigan defense.

The Varsity won the game by a score of
27 to 7, a larger score than the strong 1913
eleven had made against the fighting Ohio
collegians. In the game on October 7,
Mount Union put up an exceptionally
strong fight, showing a surprising strength
in the line and a successful attack by means
of the forward pass formation.

Hughitt, Catlett, Splawn and Maulbetsch
were the stars of this game for the Wol-
verines, all reeling off end runs for big
gains. Hughitt called on his men for the
forward pass several times during the game,
and in a majority of instances the Var-
sity's attempts were successful in putting
Michigan within scoring distance. Then
Maulbetsch or Splawn would go over for
the last few yards.

Mount Union tried the forward pass
repeatedly. Their formation was a short
throw over the line, and in the last few
minutes it was successful because of the
darkness which hid the play from the Mich-
igan defense. Twice the Varsity hurled
back this attack, but each time the deter-
mined college eleven came back strong, and
at last made their score by a final plunge
by Wilson. The officials then called the

fame as the shadows completely hid the
eld of play, making every play a matter
of luck.

The Varsity line did not shine particular-
ly in this game, for the lighter opponents,
fighting like mad all the time, more than
held the Michigan forwards. Repeated at-
tempts by the Varsity backs to gain through
the line failed, and it was only by end run6
from a punt formation that the Wolverines
made their ground.

Twice durmg the game Splawn negotiated
drop kicks, once from the 23-yard mark
and another time while standing on the 30-
yard line. At another time a mix-up in the
signals prevented still one more score from
the field by this wizard kicker.

MICHIGAN. 23; VANDERBILT, 3

In a sea of mud and with a torrent of
rain falling during its latter stages, Mich-
igan defeated the heavy Vanderbilt eleven

on October 10 by a score of 23 to 3. The
Commodore score came early in the first
half when Cody made a perfect place kick,
and put the Commodores ahead of the Var-
sity.

Michigan's attack and defense in this
game proved that the Varsity eleven was
able to rise above conditions and prove
equal to the occasion, no matter what the
handicap under which the men were forced
to play. A slippery ball, uncertain footing
and disagreeable conditions failed to slow
the Michigan attack, and three touchdowns
were scored on the strong Vanderbilt de-
fense. There should have been at least two
more touchdowns, for the Michigan backs
fumbled the oval that manv times when
they were inside the visitors 5-yard mark.
Once Splawn let loose of the ball after he
had gone over for the final distance, and
on the other occasion the quarterback
mussed up the pass to his backs.

But despite these discouraging mistakes,
the Varsity made their last touchdown after
the Commodores had repeatedly hurled
them back.

As in the games which had come before,
Maulbetsch proved to be the man to make
the final few yards necessary for the score.
Tw4ce this unstoppable plunger took the
ball over the goal line, while Hughitt made
the other score. Splawn missed an attempt
at a drop-kick when the water-soaked ball
slid around in his hands and the kick went
low and short.

Michigan tried the forward pass play but
twice, the slippery condition of the ball
making this play far from feasible. Except
in the third quarter when Yost had a sub-
stitute eleven in the field, the Vanderbilt
attack was powerless in the face of the
stubborn Michigan defense. The Varsity
forwards outplayed their heavier and more
experienced opponents at nearly every
stage of the game.

MICHIGAN, 3; M. A. C. 0

Before a throng of 13,000 people, the
majority of whom were supremely confi-
dent M. A. C. supporters, Michigan took
revenge for the 1913 defeat at the hands of
the Farmers by winning a 3 to o victory in
a fiercely fought contest on October 17.
Thereby not only was a blot wiped off the
Michigan record, but about 2,000 Michigan
men who were present, were given a chance
to voice their jubilation in the Agricultural
College stronghold.

The Varsity played purely a defensive
game, hiding their real strength from the
scouts in the stands, and making jus^t
enough points to win. Once the opponents
came near scoring, but Michigan's defense
held until the whistle brought an end to the
first half. The ball was inside the Varsity's
lo-yard line when the officials stepped in,
having been brought there on long runs
around Lyons and by hard smashes through
the Michigan line. But outside of this one
time, M. A. C. never dangerously threat-
ened.

Although the losers repeatedly threw
back the Michigan offense despite the best
attempts by the Varsity, Michigan had com-
plete command of the game at all times.
Quarterback Hughitt carefully conserved
his attack, using only the simplest of for-
mations until an opportunity of scoring
came, and then he opened up.

The chance came in the last quarter.
Michigan got the ball near the middle of
the field. , Hughitt called for a forward
pass and Lyons made a perfect catch down
on the M. A. C. 15-yard line. If he hadn't
stumbled 'he would Have gone over for a
touchdown, for the field in front of him
was clear. A former trial of strength ear-
lier in. the. game had shown the Varsity
that it couldn't score a touchdown against
the Farmers' defense, so Hughitt elected to
hr'/ng Splawn's toe into action. The ball
was taken to the middle of the field on two
end runs, and then the Varsity kicker made
the 3 points.

M. A. C. led by their smashing captain.
Fullback Julian, came back like demons,
but the Wolverines held and the game was
Michigan's.

The game came near to proving disas-
trous to Yost> hopes, for Hughitt suffered
a dislocated left elbow in one of his tackles
of Blake Miller. The injury at the time
promised to keep him out of play for the
re3t of the year, but later examination al-
layed these fears.

Captain Rayrisford and Cochran were the
defensive stars in this battle for revenge.

with Maulbetsch sharing the offensive hon-
ors with Hughitt and Splawn. The Mich-
igan line, for the first time during the
season, was pitted against a vicious attack,
but it was able to hold it in check through-
out the four quarters. The Michigan right
end, where Lyons was playing, was the
weak spot in the Varsity's defense, and
Blake Miller and Julian made long gains
in this direction.

SYRACUSE, 20; MICHIGAN. 6

With Quarterback Hughitt out of the
game on account of his injured elbow, with
two brand new ends in the line-up, and with
Lyons trying to play a position at half back
with which he was unfamiliar, Michigan
lost to Syracuse in the easterners' stadium
on October 24, by a score of 20 to 6. It was
the first time in several seasons that an
eleven had scored three touchdowns on the
Michigan Varsity, and it was not until
Tuesday that the Syracuse students ceased
their celebration.

Coach Fielding H. Yost declared after
the game that Michigan had literally hand-
ed the victory to the Orangemen. Bad
breaks by the Varsity backfield were re^
sponsible for the Syracuse scores, which in
at least two instances should never have
been made, according to Yost.

Once a punt, which should have placed
the ball far up the field and out of danger,
was carried back through the Michigan
tacklers, and Syracuse rushed it over. At
another time an off-side play gave them the
ball on the Varsity's 4-yard line. It re-
quired four rushes to put it over, but even
the stalwart resistance which Michigan put
forth could not prevent a touchdown under
such a handicap. Catlett, who had gone in
at full-back for the injured Splawn, was
the man responsible for the break. After
the game he broke down, and even the

assurances of his team-mates could not
comfort him. Catlett was suffering from a
shimp in his real form, for his regular
playing this season has been of a high class.

Had Splawn been able to continue in the
game the result would have been different,
according to the coach, in spite of the hand-
icap of new men under which the Varsity
was working. This kicker would have been
able to make the extra point after touch-
down which would have put Michigan out
ahead by a 7 to 6 score, and also would
have been able to punt out of danger at the
critical moments. But he was not, and the
critics were given their opportunity to pre-
dict an overwhelmir.g victory for Harvard
for the following week.

Syracuse made her touchdown first, after
Michigan had valiantly thrown back one
threatened successful assault on her goal
line. The home eleven started its march
on the Michigan 35-yard line, and by suc-
cessive rushes, always stoutly resisted, took
the ball over. Rose failed to kick goal, and
the Varsity was given its chance.

The blue-clad players rose to the occasion,
and with their only real display of offensive
fight in the whole game, took the ball pver
bv a perfectly-executed forward pass from
Catlett to Lyons and a fina( plunge by
Maulbetsch. All this happened in the third
quarter, but in the next period Syracuse
started its mowing tactics, and added the
two last touchdowns which spelled bitter
defeat to Yost and his men. Watson, who
was called on to take the place of Splawn
at kicking the goal, had missed, and de-
prived Michigan of the shallo>y honor of
having been at one time on the long end of
the score.

With Benton and Whalen playing ends
for the first time, and with Lyons in the
backfield, numerous shifts in the Michigan
defense were necessary to balance the team.
Despite this, the exhibition of stubborn re-
sistance shown by Captain Raynsford and
his men when Syracuse was trying to make
a touchdown from the 4-yard line, sent the
10,000 spectators wild with enthusiasm.
Three times the smashing attack of Rose
and Wilkinson was thrown back without
gaining an inch. But the terrific strain was
too much, and on the last time the Syracuse
right half back went over.

Dear Professor Cooley:—

You will recall the conference held last year
in President Hutchins' room between the Deans

of the various departments of the University and
a committee from the faculty of Albion College.
At that conference you suggested that it would
be desirable for our faculty to provide for the
first three ^ears of the Five Year Combined
Literary-Engineering Course and to confer the
Degree of Bachelor of Arts upon our students
these three years of work and the
work in the Department of Engi-

who complete these three years of work and the
Junior Year's work in the Department of Engi-
neering of the University. Our faculty voted
favorably and our committee has arranged the

courses for three years as indosed. If you deem
it wise to substitute for any of the courses raven
in our outline other courses given in our Year
Book, we shall be pleased to make the change.

(The balance of the letter refers to cumcula
and is omitted.)

KENOSHA, WW.

The first full meeting of the Kenosha
L^niversity of Michigan Club was held on
Tuesday evening, September 22, at the res-
idence of Mr. and Mrs. Frank H. Lyman,
and it was a niost enthusiastic gathering.
From Mr. E. L. Grant, '66, and Mr. Lyman,
'68, to the "infant," C. G. Pendill, '13, a
goodly number of classes were represented.
The complete enrolment follows: C. L.
Grant, '66, F. H. Lyman, '68, H. J. Winsten,
'98, Aart ' Van Westrienen, *ggfn, G. N.
Tremper, '01, Miss Anna J. Miller, '05, J.

ex'i2^, C. G. Pendill, '13.

G. N. Tremper is president of the Asso-
ciation for the coming year, and C. G. Pen-
dill is secretary and treasurer. All the
ladies of the Association are to act as vice-
president, when the necessity arises, in or-
der of their graduation.

The fore part of the evening was spent
in swapping experiences, or as they were
called "alumnicie^." Mr. Lyman has a
wonderfully complete and well preserved
collection of old pictures of professors, stu-
dents and campus scenes, numerous copies
of early catalogues and volumes of "The
Palladium," as well as a fund of entertain-
ing reminiscences. We sang to piano and
mandolin accompaniment, and with diffi-
culty settled down to business. It was
moved that the next meeting be held on
the evening of October 31, to celebrate the
Harvard game, and arrangements were
placed in the hands of a committee headed
by Dr. Hastings. Even at this early date,
plans were laid for the attendance of the
whole club at the Chicago production of
the Michigan Union Opera next spring. So
enthusiastic and enjoyable was the meeting
that it was a late hour when we sang the
"Yellow and the Blue," cheered old Mich-
igan and adjourned.

You alumni and undergraduates who hap-
pen into this part of Wisconsin, remember
us, and do the least that you can do — ^look
us up, and let us get together.

C. G. Pendill, Secretary.

SAN FRANCISCO

A Michigan luncheon and smoker was
held at the Hof Brau Cafe by the San
Francisco Association, on Saturday, Oc-
tober 31. Detailed reports of the Michigan-
Harvard game were sent in by direct wire
from the grounds.

NEW YORK

Some time during the summer the New
York Alumni extended a luncheon to Hon.
Thomas J. O'Brien, '65/. The vaguely dated
Gothamite for Midsummer, 1914, (Vol. 5,
No. 8), gives the following interesting par-
ticulars, but is somcAvhat reticent regarding
the date. The omission was noted too late
for The Alumnus to send a "tracer" for
the lost article. But the "story" is just
as good.

After a short informal reception and a
mingling and chatting of old friends
and new in the lobby of the Lawyers* Club,

the room set apart for the luncheon was
comfortably filled by the fifty-six members
and guests, and immediately the buzz of
conversation was resumed.

The buzz suddenly died down and as
suddenly changed to a roar — the old U. of
M. yell. And a yell it was. Strange how
a college man can forget all he ever learned
(or learned to bluff about) in Math, Phys-
ics, Torts, Greek or Materia Medica, but he

THOMAS JAMES O'BRIEN, '65L, LL.D. '08
U. S. Minister to Denmark, Japan and Italy

never forgets his old-time college yell. It
brings him back over a stretch of long ab-
sence from the scenes of the best time of
his life and transplants him into the land of
memory. When carried along on that wave
of psychologic impulse, nothing seems im-
probable or impossible to him. "Prexy*'
Gene Worden sensed this immediately with
that ever-working mind of his, and fran-
tically signaled to Wade Greene to get
around and collect some dues, but Wade
was at that moment too far up in the
stands, back in the old "Michigan Hurry"
times, yelling for the backs to put over a
few more touchdowns. So was the rare
opportunity lost.

And Wade was by no means the only one
to recall the scenes of memory. Some
among the crowd were down on that field
in the old days, not rooting but fighting
for the Maize and Blue. One in particular
felt the tension of alert muscles waiting
for the ball to be snapped. "Mort" Senter,

in the jungles of Colombia, S. A., was a
mighty strong factor on the football team
back there in the '90s. He was on the
team on that famous trip East, playing end,
when Harvard scored that lone heart-
breaking touchdown against them. To such
men it means a heap to get together to
talk over old times with old chums and
hear the old songs and yells.

After a short opener by Prexy Worden,
Mr. Babst spoke in his usual nailhitting
style on the subject which has been his pet
for some time — of the prominence of Mich-
igan men in the public life of the nation.
"With a prevalence of college men in the
administrative and executive offices of the
country and its possessions, Michigan leads
in some, and comes close to leading
in many other departments of the State
and nation. This is no idle boast, but is
a fact, of which we are justly proud." This
was the gist of his talk, which ended with
words of praise for the work done by Am-
bassador O'Brien, both for his service to
his country and his part in elevating the
status of Michigan.

The genial president next introduced a
man from the Mikado's Isle, where Mr.
O'Brien served some four years as Ambas-
sador. Dr. Toyokichi lyenaga was intro-
duced as a neighbor of ours, having grad-
uated in 1887 from Oberlin, taking his
Ph.D. at Johns Hopkins in 1890. His talk
was a marvel. If the staid English lan-
guage can be made at once so straight to
the point and so artistically flowery by one
to whom it is a comparative stranger, the
Japanese tongue must certainly be capable
of the most delicate and beautiful phrase-
ology.

Dr. lyenaga spoke of the diplomatic re-
lations between Japan and the United
States, which started with the advent of
Admiral Perry with his peaceful fleet of ,
war in the principal harbor of that country,
which had for all time been barred to for-
eigners. From this start the peaceful rela-
tions which existed with this country kept
on unbroken for half a century; foreign
trade with all the nations was built up,
and the Japanese prospered and forged
ahead as a result of their sudden awaken-
ing. But, as is the case with most civilized
nations, the dove of peace was incarcerated
and generally maltreated when the little
brown men so vigorously twisted the tail
of the Chinese Dragon, and showed their
prowess on both land and sea when they
stopped the growls of the Russian Bear.

The prestige thus gained as a nation of
war caused various rumors as to an inten-
tion on their part to expand territorially by
seizing the Philippines and Hawaii. Quite
a large element fully believed this to be a
certamty, and Nippon was looked upon as

a deadly menace to the United States in
particular. This state of mind of the
American people, made much of as it was
in the newspapers, together with the first
mutterings of the trouble over the Cali-
fornia land question, served to make the
diplomatic relations between the two coun-
tries rather strained.

All this was just prior to the time that
Mr. O'Brien took the ambassadorial reins
in hand. While it cannot be said that the
state of the feelings between the Japanese
and the Americans is as amicable as in that
peaceful half century before, Dr. lyenaga
assured us that from the time Mr. O'Brien
had taken charge until he returned the re-
lations had shown a most remarkable
change on the side of improvement. And,
indeed, with a nation of men of the type
of Dr. lyenaga, one cannot imagine any
but pleasant and prosperous relations to
prevail.

Mr. O'Brien replied briefly, with an ex-
pression of his appreciation of the honor
tendered him by the Club and a sincere
desire for the success of all Michigan men.
It was somewhat of a surprise to him to
learn that there are such a large number
of our alumni in New York City. Quite
a sure sign, indeed, of the extensive dis-
tribution of the graduates.

MINNEAPOUS ALUMNAE

men of Minneapolis was entertained Thurs-
day, October 29, at the home of the pres-
ident, Mrs. F. S. Martin, '79-'8i, (Florence

TAPPAN

interesting supplement to Mr. Finney's arti-
cle on his literary remains now in the Uni-
versity Library. We take this from the
July- August number of the Union Alumni
Monthly. It is dated 1825, and was there-
fore written when President was a senior
at Union.

REUNION ODE.
Air : America,

Brothers I we're here once more —
Not as in davs of yore.

When life was )roung.
And 'mid that morning lignt,
Hope, as an angel bright,
Before our raptured sight

THE MICHIGAN ALUMNUS

[November

Home of our early thought I
Where, hand in hand, we sought

Knowledge and truth.
Receive us back again,
Coming as care-worn men,
As you received us then

In early youth.

Some are not with us here —
Their mem'rv claims a tear —

The hallowed dead I
To brighter worlds now flown.
Their work of life well done.
For noble thoughts were sown

Ere they had fled.

Here let us pledge our truth,
As erst in early youth,

Faithful to be I
The honored name we bear.

The holy trusts we share.
Claim that we do and dare
All manfully.

A higher life to live,

More precious gifts to give ;

This is our part ;
That, when our work is done
And we the prize have won,
We, like the setting sun,

May hence depart.

So say we all of us.
So say we all of us.

So say we all;
So say we all of us,
S« say we all of us.
So say we all of us,

So say we all.

POEMS, LEONARD LANSON CUNE

In putting out the verse of Leonard
Lanson Cline, the Poet Lore Company has
done something more than merely add one
more to the many thin books of miscel-
laneous poetry. On a number of varied

themes, and grouped only under the simple
title, "Poems,** the verses are all touched
with a genuine artistic passion and true
sense of beauty. In the dedicatory piece
and in several sonnets, Mr. Cline reaches
a very high plane with ease and original

force. 'He imlulges in archaisms and intri-
cacies of expression but his thought has
sufficient vitality to make itself clear. In
some cases, notably in the sonnet entitled
"Rossetti," careless proof reading has re-
sulted in bad spelling and the obscurity is
not the poet's fault The work of the
volume as a whole is promising in spirit
and temperament and should interest lovers
of poetry in 'Mr. Oine's future work.

THE LATER CONTEMPORARIES OF
SHAKESPEARE

In the third, as in the first volume of his
Representative English Comedies, Profes-
sor Charles Mills Gayley has gathered the
critical opinions of a number of American
and English scholars on an interesting
group of the later contemporaries of
Shakespeare and introduces their work with
the second part of the essay which was
begun in the second volume, on a compara-
tive view of Shakespeare's followers. The
critical essays, each of which introduces a
separate play, are all in substantial agree-
ment with Professor Gayley's opinion that
the oblivion which has fallen upon the
plays is not altogether undeserved. Pro-
fessor A. F. Lange, of California, edits and
discusses Dekker; H. Butler Clarke, of
Oxford, Middleton and Rowley; Professor
Saintsbury, of Edinburgh, writes on Flet-
cher; Brander Matthews on Massinger;
George P. Baker on Brome, and Sir A. W.
Ward, of Cambridge, on Shirley.

The effort in editions and introductory
discussion has been to meet the needs of
the student rather than the general reader,
and the volume contains a surprising col-
lection of historical data and discussion.
Not only the individuals, but theatrical his-
tory and general movements are discussed.
Professor Saintsbur/s essay on Fletcher
is not so complete, perhaps, as the others,
but makes up for it in spirit and style. The
editions of the plays are modernized only
as much as seems necessary. Editions,
notes, and critical essays together offer the
student a copiously detailed description of
the principal plays and poets of the period

beginning with Shakespeare's late maturity
and ending twenty years after his death.

EVENT AND COMMENT

FACULTY
SALARIES
ADVANCE

Last month we sug-
gested that the in-
crease in the income
of the University
through the re-equalization of proper-
ty values in the State might have some
cdHFect upon the professorial salary.
The expected has come to pass. At the
last meeting of the Regents the aggre-
gate appropriation for professorial
salaries in the University was in-
creased by about $40,000.00. The im-
mediate rehef came as it properly
should, in the lower ranks, where the
need of some increase commensurate
with the increase in the cost of living
has been particularly pressing. CH This
change in the salary schedule affects
a large proportion of the instructors
and assistant professors in the Liter-
ary Faculty and the academic
Faculty in the Engineering De-
partment, whose rate of payment
has in every case been increased
by at least $100. Formerly the in-
structor started at a salary of $900,
gradually increasing to $1,400. Under
3ic revised schedule he starts at $1,000
and is gradually promoted to $1,600.
The same is true with certain modifi-
cations in the other ranks. The revis-
ed scale is as follows: Instructors,
$i,ooo$i,6oo, formerly $900-$! 400;
assistant professors, $i,7oo-$2,ooo,
formerly $i,6oo-$i,8(X); junior profes-
sors, $2,ioo-$2400, formerly $2,000-
$2,200; professors, $2,500-$4,ooo, for-
merly $2.5oo-$3,5oo. The changes in
salaries affect more than 200 per-

sons. CH While these changes arc by
no means as large as they should be,
they indicate a readiness on the part
of the Univ^ersity to recognize the
problem involved in the cost of living
for instructor and professor. The
schedule even now is not as high as
in some of our neighboring univer-
sities, but it is at any rate the first
step toward a new order of things.

MICHIGAN
AND ALBION
CO-OPERATE

In the editorial taken
from The Detroit
News published in
The Ai^umnus last
month, we had evidence of the quick
appreciation of the plans for co-opera-
tion between the University and Al-
bion College, which may be expected.
In fact, this came almost before the
idea was perfected, for it was not un-
til October 17 that the final details of
the arrangement were approved by a
joint committee of the two faculties.
The recommendations made by this
committee were approved by the Re-
gents at their November meeting, and
may now be considered definitely
fixed, dt Though the scheme contem-
plates co-operation only between Al-
bion and the Engineering Department
of the University, the possibilities
which it introduces arc far-reaching.
Now that the first step has been taken,
it would hardly be surprising to find
co-operation betwe«j oUier colleges in
the State and other departments of the
University. Not only does tiie pro-

posed action indicate a way to bring
the University into a closer co-opera-
tion with the smaller colleges of the
State, an end in itself particularly de-
sirable, but it also makes possible, for
those who desire it, the advantages of
the more intimate life of a small col-
lege during the earlier years of the
college course.

Like many actions of
DETAILS OF THE a revolutionary na-
PROPOSED COURSE ture, the actual pro-
visions for this com-
bination between the University and
Albion College are exceedingly simple.
In general, it is supposed that the stu-
dent will spend three years at Albion
College and two years at the Univer-
sity. At the end of his first year's
work in the University, provided the
report is satisfactory, he will receive
his A.B. from Albion College, the lat-
ter institution being willing to accept
the work done in the University as be-
ing equivalent to the fourth year. Up-
on completing the requirements for
graduation from the Engineering De-
partment, the student receives from
the University the degree of Bachelor
of Science in Engineering. CH The
work performed at Albion will be of
such character and extent as to enable
the student in the combined course to
enter the third year of the regular en-
gineering course at the University,
though certain minor adjustments will
have to be made involving the giving
of courses, which would normally
come in the third year in the Engi-
neering Department, at Albion, in or-
der that the student may not be hand-
icapped by having to make up certain
other courses which would normally
come in the second year at Ann Ar-
bor, for which facilities are not avail-
able at Albion College. Though Al-
bion requires the same number of
units for entrance as the University,
it does not insist upon physics or
chemistry or three units of mathemat-
ics. These have been added to the

course at Albion, so that the student
will have covered the work necessary
to enable him to enter the third year
when he makes the change. It is also
to be noted that in the third year of
the combined course, an average of
seven hours is allowed for electives,
with a view to fitting the student to
enter some of the specialized branches
of engineering at the University. Pro-
vision is also made for a certain
number of cultural courses.

NOW rr IS OVER

It is an unfortunate
fact that the score
counts more in any
game than the way it
is played. So Michigan's team this
year must be considered only partly
successful, for it cannot be denied
that the record is a checkered one.
But the schedule — a long and hard
one, with five games of major impor-
tance, or counting Vanderbilt, six, in
as many weeks, must be considered a
more than sufficient excuse, particu-
larly for a green team. CH Starting
early with a close call at Lansing,
when one field goal was the margin of
victory over the Agricultural College,
and a defeat the following week at
Syracuse, the ability of the team to
hold Harvard to one score came as a
great surprise. Nor was the good
feeling engendered between the repre-
sentatives of East and West the least
satisfactory part of this game. The
Pennsylvania game on the following
Saturday gave even more ground for
satisfaction. It was a decisive vic-
tory and by a greater score than in any
previous game with Pennsylvania, un-
less it was the 1908 game, when Penn-
sylvania won 29 to o. Then came the
unfortunate conclusion of the season.
Cornell was admittedly a strong
team, but Michigan thought she had
some reason to believe that she was at
least Cornell's equal. The event
proved the contrary, though the team
when it met Cornell was by no means
as strong as it was when it played

Harvard and Pennsylvania. (S. Not a
little of this lack of success, as has
been suggested, can be ascribed to the
schedule. Even though, theoretically,
it matters little whether the game is
lost or won, it surely does matter
whether the physically impossible is
asked of competitors in college sport.
Is it not too much to ask a team to
make a showing, in the face of such a
schedule as Michigan had for the sea-
son just ended, creditable to an insti-
tution of her athletic standing? A
game is a game, played on Ferry Field,
or on Soldier's Field, and Harvard is
as worthy an opponent on one place
as the other, but we wonder whether
there is not a little sacrifice of dignity,
if there be such a thing as college dig-
nity, in submitting to conditions which
our opponents are not willing' in their
turn to see imposed upon themselves.
We would, however, rejoice with ev-
eryone to see reciprocal relations es-
tablished with Harvard, which did not
ask superhuman efforts from the team.

Dr. Talcott Williams,
^/JANflLUON Dean of the School
GRADUATES ^^ Journalism of Co-
lumbia University, in
an address given before the Maryland
alumni of Columbia last April, stated
that ten years ago, according to care-
ful estimates made by Professor Wil-
cox, of Cornell, there, were two hun-
dred thousand college graduates in the
United States. These came from a
body of twenty million adult men in
this country, a percentage of one in
one hundred. To these two hundred
thousand might be added the grad-
uates of professional schools, making
a total of not over two hundred and
thirty to two hundred and forty thou-
sand. CC This number has, of course,
increased within the last ten years, so
that it would not be an unreasonable
estimate to suppose that there are at
least four hundred thousand college
graduates in this country at present.
Possibly with the graduates of profes-

sional schools and women graduates
the number would be nearer five hun-
dred thousand. There is no doubt but
that in this body we have the greatest
guiding and directing force in the de-
velopment of our national life and civ-
ilization. Dr. Williams points out that
though the college man forms no
more than one hundredth of the total
men in the country, he forms over fif-
ty percent of those named in "Who'«
Who," the best single measure we
have of effective <:itizenship.

This body of college
CO-OPERATION graduates is becom-
FORCOUXGEMENing conscious of the

force that lies within
it, as the growth of alumni organiza-
tion in the past twenty-five years
plainly shows, even if its expression
has been heretofore confined largely
to the relationship between the alum-
nus and his own institution. The tre-
mendous value of this organized and
intelligent support on the part of the
graduates of American colleges and
universities is now so generally recog-
nized that we are in the way to forget
how recent this development is. CH The
appreciation of a possible mission of
organized alumni in the larger nation-
al life has been more inarticulate. That
this day is passing, and that, in addi-
tion to recognizing the duty to their
own institution, American college
alumni are coming to recognize a high-
er responsibility may be seen from the
article on "Social Work Among Col-
lege Alumni'' on page 146. Co-opera-
tion has not proceeded far as yet, but
several organizations in New York
and elsewhere are aiming to bring the
graduates of all colleges into work for
civic and social improvement The
movement has served in the cities
where it has been established to carry
alumni organization beyond the prob-
lems of the separate institutions (im-
portant they surely are), into the
broader field of public life. The firing
line is truly of impressive proportions;

we cannot see all that will develop
from this movement, but as one repre-
sentative at Columbia said, "We are
on our way."

AMEETINGOF

ALUMNI

SECRETARIES

The recent meeting
of Alumni Secreta-
ries at Columbia Uni-
versity was an evi-
dence of the serious consideration that
American universities are devoting to
alumni problems. This was shown,
not only by the fact that sixty-two
universities were represented and that
delegates came from the far West, the
extreme South and the Northwest, as
well as from the Mid West and East-
em States, but by the spirit in which
the men from the various universities
approached their work. We are com-
ing to recognize more than ever be-
fore that the function of the univer-
sity does not cease with the gradua-
tion of the student. The potential
power of the hundreds of thousands
of graduates of the different universi-
ties, as far as they concern their own
institution, is well recognized, even
though development of a sympathetic
and stimulating relationship between
the university and the alumnus has
not proceeded far in some universi-
ties. Even universities which have
most effective and strongly organized
bodies feel that there is more to do
than they have done so far, while the
co-operation of the alumni of various
universities in dealing with certain
problems of national life which might
quite possibly be effectively handled
by such a body has received very little
consideration, either by universities or
by alumni bodies. (S. At the meeting
in New York, the problems of im-
mediate interest naturally received the
greater share of consideration, as will
be seen from the program on page 126.
We have always with us the problems
of effective organization, the raising of
funds, the publication of alumni re-
cords and the alumni magazine. But
in each university they are conditioned

by the particular form of its organiza-
tion. In the statements of the indivi-
dual problems and the means that
were taken to meet them, and the give
and take of the general discussions
by the representatives of the various
universities, were found valuable sug-
gestions and decided inspiration. The
spirit of the whole meeting was an
uplifting and altruistic recognition of
the relationship of alumni organiza-
tion toward the bettering not only of
college and university Hfe, but also the
national civiHzation.

Like the often quoted
TYPES OF ALUMNI problem of the egg or
ORGANIZATION the chick, the ques-
tion was raised at the
recent meeting of Alumni Secretaries
by Dean Keppel, of Columbia, as to
whether the alumni secretary was the
result of the association, or the asso-
ciation the result of the secretary.
Subsequent discussion revealed the
truth of both hypotheses in different
colleges. In most universities, the
alumni organization is an evolution re-
sulting from certain practical condi-
tions which have defined the precise
form the alumni activities come to as-
sume. The general alumni association,
in many colleges, is a direct child of
the local organization, while in others
it rests rather upon the organization of
classes. This is particularly true at
Yale, while Harvard's organization
rests upon the local alumni club.
Cn; Michigan's type of organization
differs from both in having no vital
connection with the local association
or with the class organization. By
that we mean that the election of offi-
cers and the control of the fundamen-
tal policies of the Association rest in
no way upon the local associations or
upK)n class organizations, but upon a
general meeting of all alumni who
meet once a year at Commencement,
primarily to elect officers, and to pass,
in rather a perfunctory way, truth to

tell, upon whatever business may be
presented at that time. The Associa-
tion quite probably would gain in ef-
fectiveness if some closer connection
might be maintained between the Gen-
eral Association and both types of sub-
sidiary organization. There are cer-
tain advantages in our tenuous and
loose form of association, particularly
in the freedom it leaves the executive
officer, but insofar as it gives the indi-
vidual alumnus no feeling of responsi-
bility towards the organization, it ex-
hibits an unfortunate weakness.

For some time the
LOCAL ALUMNI officers of the Gener-
ORGANiZATiONS al Association have
been trying with
some degree of success to remedy this
condition by stimulating the organiza-
tion of local associations and classes.
Reference to the list of local associa-
tions in the front pages of The
Alumnus will show that we bave one
hundred and thirty-one local associa-
tions, most of them fairly active, many
of them decidedly so. Likewise, we
have recorded the addresses of one
hundred and twenty-five class secre-
taries, most of whom are interested in
their work, and are glad to avail them-
selves of all suggestions and help
which the General Association is able
to furnish. CH To bring the local asso-
ciation into closer touch with the Gen-
eral Association and the University,
an Advisory Council has been estab-
lished, in which local associations with
over fifty members are entitled to rep-
resentation. This council meets once
or twice a year to consider questions
which pertain to the University as
they affect, or are affected by, the
alumni. Included in the scheme of
organizaticm is an executive commit-
tee which shall have a more intimate
relationship between alumni and Uni-
versity, and act in a specific advisory
capacity. That not a great deal has
been accomplished to date by this or-

ganization does not necessarily imply
that much could not be done, if the
machinery we have were properly un-
der way.

ORGANIZING
THE LOCAL
ASSOCIATION

:ult problem.

How to organize the
local alumni associa-
tion into an effective
UiUt is usually a diffi-
It is not a question of
getting the "old guard" who are al-
ways present, and always enthusiastic,
out for the meeting, but ot reaching
all the alumni, and making them in-
terested and enthusiastic as well. The
Chicago Association has evolved a
scheme which is proving successful,
and might be even more feasible for
some of the smaller associations where
the percentage of personal, acquaint-
ance among the members is probably
higher. Ct This plan involves the or-
ganization of an executive council
which meets for the consideration and
promotion of definite work undertak-
en by the Association. This council
consists of over 130 members, arawn
from all the classes represented in
Chicago. The larger classes, partic-
ularly of the later years, have several
representatives on the council. The
general organization is in touch with
these class representatives, and if it
is desired to hold a meeting or bring
the alumni together for any purpose,
the word is passed on to certain com-
mittee chairmen, who communicate in
turn with the class representatives.
Each of these call up on the telephone
a list of their own classmates. In this
way, within a few hours, or a day at
most, practically all of the alumni in
Chicago can be informed of any plan
which is on foot, and an immediate
response can be obtained, d. The Cor-
nell Alumni Association in Chicago
has a similar arrangement, which one
Cornell alumnus interprets in electri-
cal terms. The total alumni list in Chi-
cago is divided up into fifty squads of
from eight to sixteen men, who are

presided over by a "live wire." Five
"live wires" are presided over in turn
by one man, the "trunk line." The ten
"trunk lines" are divided into two
squads of five each who report to the
"transformers," who in turn are re-
sponsible to the "big dynamo," the
chairman of the ways and means com-
mittee. When the secretary desires to
get a crowd out to a banquet, he starts
the dynamo up, gives the desired in-
formation to the transformer, who
discharges the news to the trunk lines,
who in turn transmit their energy to
the "live wires," and the revivifying
influence of their sparking produces
enough energy in the corpses and in-
valids to make the banquet a resurrec-
tion. It is only necessary to add that
it is the treasurer who oils the dyna-
mo. The electrical terminology may
be criticised by engineers, but the idea
is sufficiently plain.

To the Advisory
OF cSS^™'^ Council another gen-
SECRETARIES ^^^^ organization has

been added in the
form of the Association of Class Sec-
retaries, which was organized Novem-
ber 7, as reported on page 129. While
the function of the Advisory Council
is to bring the alumni into closer
touch with the University, and to
make the mature ability and experi-
ence of the alumni of service to the
University, the function of the Class
Secretaries Association is r a t h e r to
help the class secretaries in their work
of gathering records, of keeping track
of their classmates, and of stimulating
their interest in the University
through class publications and reun-
ions. CH The relation of this body to
the General Association is not neces-
sarily intimate. The only actual link
is the General Secretary, who is a
member ex officio of the executive
committee, according to the new con-
stitution. In practice, however, the
organization is bound to co-operate ra-
ther intimately with the General Asso-

ciation, which for years has under-
taken the work of the organization and
stimulation of reunions, and to a cer-
tain extent the gathering of records.
This side of the activities of the Gen-
eral Association will not be lessened
by the new organization. Rather, it is
to be hoped it will be increased,
through the growth of interest and ef-
ficiency on the part of the class secre-
tary, who will profit by the experience
and enthusiasm of others engaged in
like work.

The first task before
SOME TASKS this new Association
BEFORE rr is the publication of a
handbook, and the
preparation of some standard method
for the gathering and filing of class
records. Such a handbook as is con-
templated should contain a general
discussion of the work of the class
secretary, notes on the best method of
procuring and classifying individual
records, what should and what should
not be included, general hints on the
publication of class books and the fi-
nancing of class organizations, and
other matters of interest to the class
secretary. CC In addition, samples of
various forms which are to be pre-
pared for the class secretaries will be
included, and a scale of prices will be
established, so that the class secreta-
ries may obtain them at the lowest
possible cost. Such a work involves
necessarily a certain financial problem
which was not met at the recent meet-
ing when the Association was organ-
ized. The article providing for a mem-
bership fee was stricken out, and the
question of financing the whole mat-
ter was left to the executive commit-
tee. This problem promises to be a
pertinent one as soon as definite activ-
ities are undertaken by the Associa-
tion. Voluntary contributions by the
secretaries interested in the work may
furnish sufficient help until the Asso-
ciation is under way, and some definite
method of maintenance is evolved.

EVENT IN BRIEF

"Pomander Walk," by L. N. Par-
ker, has been chosen as the annual
play of the Comedy Club, to be pre-
sented some time after the opening of
the second semester.

Theodore W. Koch, Librarian of
the University, delivered an illustrated
lecture on "Book Plates" at the De-
troit Museum of Art on November
15. It was given as one of the Uni-
versity Extension lectures.

The third annual chrysanthemum
exhibit was opened in Alumni Me-
morial Hall on Saturday, October 31,
and continued until the end of No-
vember. About three thousand plants
were sho\yn, including the green ones
which created so much interest last
. year.

Professor Henry C. Adams, and his
family, who have been in China for
the past year, returned to Ann Arbor
on November 7. Professor Adams
was called to China by the government
to devise an accounting system for the
railroads which they had taken over.
He will resume his courses in political
economy next semester.

In return for the facsimiles of the
Freer Manuscripts, the American Bi-
ble Society has presented to the Uni-
versity Library nearly one hundred
editions of the Bible. They are print-
ed in a number of languages, includ-
ing the languages of Europe and Asia,
and the dialects of the North Ameri-
can Indians and of African tribes.

Professor John R. Brumm, of the
Rhetoric Department, was appointed
as the delegatt of the School Masters'
Club and of the State Teachers Asso-
ciation at the meeting of the National
Council of Teachers of English, held
in Chicago, November 26-28. Profes-
sor F. N. Scott, head of the Rhetoric
Department, was also present, and de-
livered an address.

Mr. H. M. Leland, of Detroit, con-
sulting general manager of the Cadil-
lac Motor Car Co., spoke before the
Sunday afternoon meeting of the
Michigan Union on November 29, tak-
ing as his subject, "Character in Busi-
ness."

At the November meeting of the
Regents, J. C. Christensen, at present
Assistant Secretary of the University,
was appointed Purchasing Agent of
the University, succeeding Charles L.
Loos, whose resignation takes effect
January i, 1915.

Shipments of glassware from Ger-
many, billed to the University of
Michigan, have recently been received
in New York. These shipments are
part of a lai^e order of chemical sup-
plies, the greater part of which were
sent before the war. The material in
the shipment is intended for the
Chemical Department, where there is
an almost immediate need for it.

Paintings by Mr. F. Usher De Vol!
and Mr. H. E. Barnes were on exhibi-
tion in the large gallery of Memorial
Hall from November i to November
15, under the auspices of the Ann Ar-
bor Art Association. Mr. De VoU's
paintings were of scenes in the east-
em states, while the work of Mr.
Barnes, who is an Ann Arbor man,
consisted chiefly of Huron River
views.

A petition asking for the establish-
ment of military training and service
in the University was presented to the
Regents at their meeting on November
24. Although the petition was only
circulated for two or three days, about
fifty names were signed, including
those of Dean Bates, of the Law De-
partment, Dean Cooley, of the Engi-
neering Department, Dean Vaughan,
of the Medical Department, Professor
Evans Holbrook, of the Law Depart-
ment, Coaches Fielding H. Yost,

126 THE MICHIGAN ALUMNUS [December

THIRD MEETING OF ASSOCIATION OF ALUMNI SECRETARIES

Columbia and Yale Universities furnished a most hospitable and inspir-
ing setting for the third annual meeting of the Association of Alumni Secre-
taries, held in New York on November 19 and 20, and in New Haven on
the following day. The business sessions of the Association, five in num-
ber, were held in the new building of the School of Journalism at Columbia,
while the most important session of the third day, at New Haven, was held
at the Yale Bowl, where the members of the Association formed a small
part of the seventy thousand who witnessed Harvard^s spectacular victory.

The register of the meeting showed sixty-seven delegates present, repre-
senting sixty-two different institutions, a significant increase over the attend-
ance of the two previous meetings at Columbus and Chicago. There were
executive alumni officers present from as far west as Stanford University.
The South was represented by men from Texas, Louisiana and Virginia;
North Dakota and Minnesota in the Northwest sent delegates; while most
of the mid-western and eastern states were represented, giving an impres-
sive national aspect to the meeting.

Both Columbia and Yale proved cordial hosts. A large proportion
of the members of the Associaton were housed in the Columbia dormi-
tories as guests of the University during the period of the sessions, and the
members of the Association were given privileges of the Faculty Club for
breakfast and luncheon on the days when the Association was not formally
entertained. On the opening day of the session a luncheon was given the
Association by Columbia University at Claremont on the Hudson, at w*hich
Dean Keppel, of Columbia College, presided. On the evening of the fol-
lowing day a dinner was also tendered the Association by the Columbia Uni-
versity Club in the clubhouse in Gramercy Square, at which Dean Van Am-
ringe, Columbia, '60, President of the Columbia Federated Clubs, presided.
Dean "Van Am*' is as loved and venerated by Columbia alumni as our own
President Emeritus is by Michigan alumni.

But small opportunity was given on the following day to see Yale Uni-
versity, though an instructive few minutes were spent by the Association in
walking about the Campus and in the offices where the Yale alumni records
are preserved. At a luncheon given by the University in Memorial Hall, the
Association was addressed by the Secretary of Yale University, Rev. Anson
Phelps Stokes, who emphasized the opportunity for service to the university
which alumni organization brings. Particularly helpful, he thought, might
be the interchange of ideas among the different universities. He cited the
remarkable growth of the Yale Alumni Fund, which now amounts to $1,300,-
000, as an example of most useful work for their Alma Mater on the
part of the alumni. But more than this, he stated as an example of the
inspiration of concerted alumni eflFort that since the idea had been developed
a few years ago, at Yale, it had spread to many other American universities,
which were now developing alumni funds along the lines first hit upon by a
small band of Yale alumni.

"What Alumni Associations Are Doing, and Might be Doing" formed
the general topic for the opening sessions of the Conference. Following an
introductory speech by the President of the Association, Mr. E. B. Johnson,

128 THE MICHIGAN ALUMNUS [December

of Minnesota, and a discussion of "The Ideal Association" by the Secretary,
the representative of the University of Michigan, Dean C. Mathews, of
Western Reserve University, took up the question of developing and voic-
ing alumni sentiment so that it shall really represent the highest ideals of
the alumni for the institution. Aspects of th^ question were discussed by
the representatives of Northwestern, the Massachusetts Institute of Tech-
nology and Wisconsin. At the afternoon session the problem of the class
secretary was opened by Edwin Rogers Embree, Alumni Registrar of Yale
University, who outlined at some length the plan which has been followed
at Yale for the past hundred years with remarkable and inspiring results.
Warren F. Sheldon, of Wesleyan, also discussed the possibilities of the
system, and how to finance the work. Mr. Win-field Willard Rowlee, of
Cornell, in discussing local alumni associations, outlined an interesting
scheme of organization followed by the Cornell Association of Chicago.
Lewis D. Crenshaw, of Virginia, also told of a most successful and compre-
hensive campaign to bring about class reunions at a university where, before
he took the matter up, organization by classes was unknown..

The evening sessions of the first day were divided among the state uni-
versities, the larger endowed institutions, and the smaller endowed institu-
tions, under the chairmanship of representatives from Louisiana, Pennsyl-
vania and Worcester Pol3rtechnic Institute.

The following day the subjects of "the alumni secretary" and "the
alumni publication" formed the principal topics under discussion. Particu-
larly interesting was a symposium, by John A. Lomax, of Texas, on "The
Relation of the Alumni to the Secretary and to the Institution," founded
upon a series of letters written to representative institutions all over the
United States. Edwin Oviatt, Editor of The Yale Alumni Weekly, dis-
cussed the ideals that should govern the editor, a question of absorbing in-
terest to many of those present. The question of interesting the alumni,
older and younger, was presented by Joseph S. Myers, of Ohio State Uni-
versity.

The afternoon of the second day was devoted to the election of officers
for the coming year, and a general discussion of questions raised by various
members of the Association. The following officers were elected: Presi-
dent, Edwin R. Embree, Alumni R^strar of Yale University; First Vice-
President, Dean C. Mathews, of Western Reserve University ; Second Vice-
President, John A. Lomax, of Texas ; Secretary, Wilfred B. Shaw, Univer-
sity of Michigan; Treasurer, A. T. Prescott, University of Louisiana; Mem-
bers of the Executive Committee: J. E. McDowell, Stanford University;
Karl Leebrick, University of California; Charles Cason, Vanderbilt Uni-
versity. The Association also established a Bureau of Information for
Alumni Officers. The chairman of this bureau, Levering Tyson, Columbia,
will make it a part of his duties to collect detailed information from all the
universities which are members of the Association in triplicate for the use
of anyone who desires to find what other universities are doing in certain
fields of alumni activity. A preparation of exhibits will also be undertaken,
to be shown at the next meeting of the Association, which is to be held next
November at Stanford University.

1914] ASSOCIATION OF CLASS SECRETARIES 129

AN ASSOCIATION OF CLASS SECRETARIES ORGANIZED

At a meeting of about twenty-five class secretaries, held at the Michigan
Union, immediately following the Pennsylvania game, November 7, 1914,
a constitution and definite plan of organization of an Association of Class
Secretaries was adopted. The General Secretary of the Alimini Association,
to whom had been delegated the duty of calling the meeting together, acted
as chairnmn, with Professor Gordon Stoner, '04, '06/, as secretary.

Following a short statement of the purpose of the meeting, in which
the action of the previous session, held last Commencement, was reviewed
by the chairman, the constitution drawn up by the committee on constitution
previously authorized, composed of Professor Gordon Stoner, '04, *o6l. Dr.
Charles W. Hitchcock, '80, of Detroit, Dr. G. Carl Huber, '87W, Thurlow
E Coon, '03, '06^, of Detroit, and James H. Westcott, '94/, of New York,
was presented. A copy of this constitution had been previously sent
to all the class secretaries, and many letters had been received r^^arding
it. Following the suggestion in tiie letter of Mr. Louis H. Jennings, '72, of
Chicago, it was moved by Dr. Huber that the words, "the General Secretary
of the Alimini Association shall act as chairman of this committee," be
stricken from Article IV of the proposed constitution. This was carried,
and the constitution was then adopted as amended.

Meanwhile, the chairman of the meeting had appointed Miss Annie W.
Langley, '01, Dr. Hitchcock and Professor J. H. Drake, '85, '02I, as a nom-
inating committee.

A certain amount of discussion of the proposed constitution followed,
and it was finally moved and adopted that the adoption of the constitution
be reconsidered. The section in the original draft of the constitution, pro-
viding that the annual dues of the members of the Association should be
two dollars, roused a considerable discussion. It was felt by some of the
secretaries that this might not only prove something of a burden for class
secretaries whose classes are at present very loosely organized, but, until
the aim and scope of the organization were better defined, might impair,
rather than increase, the general eflFectiveness of the proposed association.
It was finally decided upon motion that the adoption of the constitution be
reconsidered, which resulted in the final adoption of the constitution, with
Article VII, providing for dues, stricken out. The constitution as finally
amended is as follows:

Article I. — Name.

The name of this organization shall be "The Association of Class Secretaries, of
the University of Michigan."

Article II.— Object.

The object of this Association shall be to further the interests of the University;
to encourage and aid the collection and compilation of complete and uniform statistics
for each class and the publication of the same in a uniform manner ; to enliven interest
in and increase the attendance at the regular class reunions; and by proper organiza-
tion and co-operation to stimulate and standardize the work of the class secretaries and
to develop greater unity of action and feeling in the various classes, Alumni Associa-
tion and alumni body as a whole.

Stoner, '04, '06/, Ann Arbor; for Members of the Executive Committee. Mr. Wilfred
B. Shaw, '04, Ann Arbor (ex-oMcio), Mrs. F. N. Scott, '84, Ann Arbor, and Mr. Louis
H. Jennings, '72, Chicago.

Upon motion of Professor Ralph W. Aigler, '07/, the report of the
nominating committee was adopted, and the above officers were duly elected.

The question of immediate general interest was that of uniform blanks
for class statistics, and the publication of a handbook for class secretaries,
similar to those already published by Yale and Cornell Universities. It was
felt that some uniformity in the matter of keeping records was very desirable,
as was also some central office where these might be filed. It was finally
moved by Professor Bradshaw that this matter of uniform statistical blanks,
as well as the publicaton of a handbook, be referred to the executive com-
mittee, with power. This was duly carried. The meeting thereupon ad-
journed, to meet again next Commencement.

I9I4] YALE'S ALUMNI RECORDS 131

YALE'S SYSTEM OF ALUMNI RECORDS

For a period of one hundred and twenty-three years, from 1792 to
191 5, practically every class at Yale University has been organized with a
secretary as executive officer and editor of not one, but a series of class
records. The loyalty of Yale alumni to their Alma Mater has been proverb-
ial, and with such a record of organized effort it is not difficult to see the
reason for it. There has been a certain amount of organization by classes
in most American universities; records have been kept by divers enthu-
siastic class secretaries, but never has the system been carried out so sys-
tematically and so enthusiastically as at Yale, and nowhere have results been
so remarkable.

At Yale the class secretary is elected during his senior year, and is
re-elected or succeeded in election from time to time during the life of the
members of the class. He is the only general officer, and to him are dele-
gated the duties of keeping annotated address lists, occupation lists and mar-
riage and family lists of the members of his class. In the younger years of the
class he also acts as a bureau of occupation and recommendation for class-
mates desiring new positions. To him also are referred questions involving
special class activities or affecting class policy. These powers have grown
up with the office, especially as no class or general alumni association has
specifically delegated these powers to the secretary.

According to Mr. E. R. Embree, Yale's Alumni Registrar, who des-
cribed the system at the meeting of Alumni Secretaries at Columbia, it is an
evolution, a survival of the fittest, in class organization. The other officers of
the class, sometimes appointed by the secretary, sometimes elected by the
class, arrange for specific reunions, collect money for current expenses and
for the University Alumni Fund, manage the annual dinners and devise and
present memorials to the University. The secretary's specific and individual
duty concerns the personal life of the member and the published records of
his life. It is in the matter of class records that the Yale system is unique.
A senior book is published at Yale, as at many other American universities,
but this is only the beginning of a series of records.

According to the present system most classes at Yale now issue more
or less extensive biographical records of their members at five year intervals
after graduation so long as the last survivor lives, forming a complete
library of five to a dozen volumes. In general, these publications follow
the reunions. Many of them are comparatively short, consisting merely of
an account of the last reunion and brief sketches of recent events in the
members' careers. But at the ten year, the twenty-five year and the fifty
year period the records are more extensive. The twenty-five year and fifty
year books are often distinct contributions to American biography, giving a
complete sketch of each member, with often some genealogical background,
a full account of his college life and two to five hundred words concerning
his career, illustrated with photographs of the man as he appeared in col-
lege and as he appeared twenty-five years after graduation.

Yale now has a library of five hundred and forty volumes of class
records, not including smaller pamphlets and address lists. The value of

this material to American biography and history is very great, and must
become more valuable as the years pass. But even greater is its value to
Yale University and to the members of the classes in keeping alive their
interest and furthering a spirit of solidarity with one another and with the
University. While it may be long before we can realize the completeness
of the system at Yale University, some such organized method of keeping
alumni records should be the ideal of the new Association of Class Secre-
taries.

THE BOSTON AND DETROIT SMOKERS

BOSTON, OCTOBER 30, I914.

The smoker given by the New England Association to the Michigan
alumni on the night before the Harvard game in the large ball room of the
Copley-Plaza Hotel, proved a great success. The program was opened with
a short concert by the Varsity Band, which occupied a platform at one end
of the hall. When the meeting was called to order there were about six
hundred men on the floor, with the balcony crowded with two to three
hundred of Michigan's alumnae. Dr. C. W. Staples, 8gd, the president of the
New England organization, opened the program with a few words of wel-
come, and introduced James M. Swift, '95, ex-Attorney General of Mass-
achusetts, as the Master of Ceremonies for the evening. He in turn called
on Dean Cooley, Judge W. L. Day, '00/, of Cleveland, and Judge J. O. Mur-
fi^> '95> '96/^ of Detroit, and all of these gave characteristic Michigan talks.
Following this, impromptu speeches were made by Dean C. Worcester, '89,
Coach Yost and H. J. Killilea, '85/, president of the "M" Club. The coach
came in late, and stood back in a comer, but somebody noticed him, and
immediately cries went up for "Yost." The Band struck up "The Victors,"
and the cheers that went up as he was taken to the platform were deafen-
in. It was just a start towards showing that Michigan's alumni were with
the team to the end.

Between the various talks were cheers, led by "Hap" Haff, and the
alunmi showed that even though they have been away a good many years,
they still know how to yell. "Varsity" and "Win for Michigan" were sung
during the evening. The program ended with moving pictures of Ann
Arbor, more cheers, and the singing of "The Yellow and the Blue."

Following the smoker, the crowd accepted the kind invitation of the
Harvard Club, and headed by the Band marched to the Harvard Club, where
they were entertained until well after midnight.

DETROIT, NOVEMBER 21, I914.

Michigan spirit, in all its enthusiasm and collegiate optimism, was well
shown when the Varsity team was the guest of the Detroit Alumni Associa-
tion in the annual football smoker the Saturday night following the close
of the season. The casual observer would never have known that the
Detroit alumni were feasting a team which had lost three of its big games
in one of the most disastrous seasons since Fielding Yost came to Michi-

134 THE MICHIGAN ALUMNUS [December

gan, so bona fide and whole-hearted was the enthusiasm of the 600 students
and graduates who were gathered in the auditorium of the new Board of
, Commerce building in Detroit.

Captain James W. Raynsford, Captain-elect William D. Cochran, with
Trainer Steve Farrell, Graduate Director Phillip G. Bartelme and the mem-
bers of the 1914 Varsity squad, were seated in the place of honor at the front
of the big hall, while the other guests and their hosts were grouped around
tables which completely filled the floor space. The yellow-caped bandmen
were also present and were by no means the least popular part of the
gathering.

Not one of the speakers was allowed to touch on the fact of defeat,
and all were optimistic as a result. The two captains, and Splawn and
Maulbetsch were the team men called on, and each received an ovation on
his appearance. The stocky little half back who had played in every game
of the season, came in for a huge share of the attention, and it was only
after the crowd had insisted that he talk, that he mounted the platform for
his share of the speech-making.

Charles Cross, a Cornell athlete of four year's competition, scored the
biggest hit of the evening when he got up to say that "he was glad that
Cornell had beaten Michigan because he would rather that Cornell beat
Michigan than any other team in the country." He paid a glowing tribute
to Michigan's spirit; a tribute which was echoed by Jay McLauchlan, a
Yale man, who also was called on.

President Walter E. Oxtoby, 98/, of the Detroit Association, introduced
James Strassburg, '02, as toastmaster to start the festivities. Strassburg
was Varsity baseball manager in 1901, and he proved equal to the task of
keeping the enthusiastic crowd in leash long enough to listen to the speakers.
Judge James O. Murfin, '95, '96/, of Detroit, one of the alumni members of
the Athletic Board in Control, was a speaker, telling of the board's plans for
the future and complimenting the 1914 Varsity on its season's play. E. A.
Batchelor, a sports writer of Detroit, Attorney Francis D. Eaman, '00, and
several others, were also on the list of speakers.

THE Y.M.C.A."MOBIUZATION WEEK**

With the purpose of interesting as many students in the University as
possible in religious and social service, the Students* Christian Association
conducted a five days series of meetings, beginning Wednesday, November
18, under the name "Mobilization Week." In the five days a total of two
hundred and eighty-four meetings were held, which were addressed by
some thirty out-of-town speakers, men and women prominent in the religious
and social work of the day. In addition to the general meetings held each
night in Hill Auditorium, meetings were held at noon and evening at the
various fraternity and sorority houses, by the different classes and depart-
ments, by the women, by the men interested in athletics and journalism,
and by the foreign students of the University. An elaborate plan of organi-
zation, involving the appointment of over three hundred student committee-
men, was carried out, under the general direction of an executive staflf

composed of Paul C. Wagner, '16^, of Ann Arbor, general chairman;
Philip C. Lovejoy, '16, of Ann Arbor, executive secretary; and Grace L
Fletcher, '16, of Chelsea, chairman of the women's division.

Among the speakers were Reverend Allen Arthur Stockdale, pastor
of the Congregational Church of Toledo, Ohio; Willard T. Beahan, chief
engineer of the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern Railway; Mr. James
Schermerhom, of the Detroit Times; Mr. W. F. Lovett, of the Grand Rapids
Evening News; Dr. Richard C. Cabot, one of the foremost practicing physi-
cians of the day; Judges Alfred C. Murphy and Harry A. Lockwood, of
Detroit; Dr. Peter Roberts, of New York, head of the industrial welfare
work in the country ; A. J. Elliott, secretary of the International Y. M. C. A.
Committee for colleges and universities in the Middle West; Charles Hur-
rey, of New York, industrial welfare worker; R. H. Rindge, Jr., of New
York City; Henry Hobson, Yale, '14, manager of the Yale Varsity crew;
Richard H. Edward ; J. R. Lee, of Detroit, tiie man who has developed the
social welfare work for the Ford employees; Lloyd C. Douglass, of Cham-
paign, 111. ; E. C. Mercer, of New York City ; and Miss Mary Corbett.

While in Ann Arbor, a social service committee composed of six men
who are specializing in social work, made a survey of the city, finding many
opportunities for social service in the factories, hospitals and city play-
grounds, and in teaching first aid to the injured, hygiene and English to
foreigners. As a result of their investigations, one hundred and seventy-five
students in the University have offered their services to help better these
conditions.

The following week, November 27-29, over two thousand representa-
tives from the various Michigan high schools met at Ann Arbor for the
annual Y. M. C. A. State Boys' Conference. A series of meetings were
held in Hill Auditorium, under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A., which were
addressed by President Hutchins, Governor Woodbridge N. Ferris, Senator
Charles E. Townsend, Mr. Fred B. Smith, of New York City, and Secre-
tary of State William Jennings Bryan.

A REVIEW OF THE 1914 FOOTBALL

SEASON

The 1914 season was decidedly an off one for Michigan. A new
team had practically to be created, and the most difficult schedule of years
had to be faced. Yet these odds were partially at least discounted by the
team. That in the Harvard and Pennsylvania games, Michigan showed
an improvement and sportsmanship of which everyone had reason to be
proud must not be forgotten when the books for 1914 are balanced.

Nevertheless, the season as a whole turned out much as was feared by
those with experience in athletics, even though there were some decidedly
bright spots in the season's record. Nine members of the team ended their
football careers with the close of the season of 1913, so it was well known
that the 1914 team would be an untried and inexperienced crew. It was

the opinion of most good judges that the 1914 schedule was too hard for the
green team which must play it, and that it would result in disaster. And
in spite of the added length of the summer practice, the extra mid-week
games, and the changing of the rules as to scholarship eligibility, these
expectations were realized, and the season ended with three defeats for
Michigan — a record not equalled in the past twenty years.

To take up the season in detail, it shows a typical performance by a
green team made up of very promising but undeveloped and inexperienced
men. Against the early-season teams, Michigan showed an effective offense
and though a ragged yet nevertheless an adequate, defense. As soon as op-
ponents of strength were met, however, the weaknesses in the team ap-
peared. Even Vanderbilt, though much weaker than usual (the Commo-
dores had almost a straight record of defeats this season), was able to score,
though Michigan rallied later in the game and clearly outclassed the south-
em team. In the game against M. A. C. at Lansing, Michigan met a worthy
foe, and was very glad to come home with a victory. The Aggies, it must
be confessed, outplayed Michigan, and probably nothing but the call of time
kept them from scoring a touchdown at the end of the first half. Michi-
gan's only effective march toward the M. A. C. goal was checked by a fierce
defense, and it was only by taking advantage of her superiority in for-
ward passing that Michigan was able again to get the ball to a place
where Splawn could kick a goal and roister the three points which gave

Michigan the victory. The victory was a costly one, for injuries were suf-
fered by Hughitt and Splawn which kept the former out of the Syracuse
game and reduced the latter*s effectiveness considerably. Even with the
full strength of the team, however, Michigan would have had difficulties
with the strong Syracuse team on October 24th. Syracuse, taking advan-
tage of every weak point in Michigan's defense and nullifying every effort
of her offense, won by the decisive score of 20 to 6. It was simply a case
of a green team against a seasoned team.

The Harvard game was naturally a manifestation of the same superior-
ity of experience over inexperience. Harvard, even without the services of
Brickley, Mahan, Pennock, Soucy and (for the greater part of the game)
Wallace, was much more experienced than Michigan. In the long run,
any eastern team is, probably, more experienced than any western team, be-
cause of the better training received in the eastern preparatory schools ; but
in the Harvard game the eastern team had a great advantage in collegiate
experience as well. And the advantage showed even though Michigan put
up an unexpectedly brave resistance. After the Michigan men had worn
themselves out in rushing the ball almost the length of the field in the lir^t
quarter, while Harvard was pursuing the traditional eastern tactics of hold,
punt, hold, punt. Harvard's superiority in punting gave her the ball at the
center of the field early in the second quarter, and she took it down the
field for a touchdown in eleven plays. Again in the second half Michigan
rushed the ball down toward Harvard's goal time after time, only to be held
each time and to see Harvard — not attempting to run, but punting on first
or second down — send the ball up the field again, where Michigan would
again begin its splendid, but wearying and fruitless, pounding toward the
unreachable Crimson goal. Michigan's attack, brilliant and forceful though
it was, had been solved by the trained veterans of Harvard, and could not
carry over the last line. The result was inevitable — no team could stand
the overstrain — ^and at the end of the game Harvard was apparently about
to score again when time was called.

One notable result of the game was the mutual expression of good will
between the supporters of the two universities. The Eastern papers were
practically imanimous in the credit given to the sportsmanlike qualities of
the team and the loyalty of the Michgan contingent at the game.

Mack Whelan in the Boston Globe, says :

An important part of the game was that both elevens played hard, clean football.
Another feature was that Michigan, hundreds of miles from its own campus, gave a
demonstration of graduate loyalty to the university which impressed vividly upon
some thirty thousand of first hand observers that Ann Arbor is the home of a great,
broad, national institution, the limits of the influence of whidi is not bound^ed by states
or sections. Every one knew it before the game, of course, but every one who was
among those present in the Stadium «had a much more personal realization of it after
the game, Michigan made many thousands of friends in the east as the result of her
long trip. Not only in point of numbers, but in the character of her ^lendid repre-
sentation was the Michigan side of the Stadium impressive.

The New York Herald says :

The showing of the Michigan rooters was a big surprise. Not many expected to
»ce such an outpouring as there was of those who wore the Maize and Blue. In the

east stand there were fully two thousand who had come to cheer the Ann Arbor
juggernaut, and there was not one in this collection who dad not carry a yellow
chrysanthemum. Banked against the gray background of the stadium the yellow
flowers made a picturesque splurge of color.

Another hit to the present generations of Bostonians, who had never before seen
the Western team and their supporters, was the band of forty pieces, which came
all the -way from Ann Arbor. These young musicians were decked out in blue and
gold uniforms, and when tbey marched on the field and worked themselves into the
form of a huge M, the Harvard side of the field gave them a big send-off. The band
was a big feature of the occasion.

One of the striking things about the match was the glee with which the Harvard
supporters greeted the victory. It is not very often, except in a contest with Yale or
Princeton, that the Crimson undergraduates give themselves up to the joyous intricacies
of the snake dance, but when the final whistle blew the whole Harvard stand stormed
down on the field and, led by their band, they paraded around the turf arni -went
through the time honored custom of tossing hats over the cross bars of the goal posts.

Grantland Rice, in the Evening Mail, said :

The fine, clean spirit of sportsmanship displayed by both factions on and off the
field Saturday should make the Harvard-Michigan battle a yearly affair. Yost and
his men were overwhelmed with every attention possible. .Harvard went to the limit
in hospitality. And the spirit all around shown through the battle was of such a ihigh
order that it would be a pity for such a contest to be dropped. A meeting of this sort
is too big a boon to sportsmanship to be laid aside.

Sportsmanship is the worth while element in every game. College sportsmanship
is training for the Greater Sportsmanship. For life, after all, is only a game.

After the Harvard game there was a tremendous feeling of confidence
among the supporters of the Michigan team. Nearly everybody had ex-
pected a worse defeat, and the margin of a single touchdown seemed nar-

row indeed between Michigan and the strongest team in the east. This con-
fidence was heightened by the fact that Michigan had twice come so near
to scoring, and by the current reports that Michigan had "gained more
groimd" than Harvard. It is true that Michigan ran the ball from scrim-
mage for a greater distance than Harvard did ; to be exact, Mr. Parke H.
Davis' table in the Detroit Tribune shows that Michigan rushed the ball 55
times for a total gain of 191 yards (an average of 3.47 yards) against Har-
vard's 33 rushes for a total of 127 yards (an average of 3.85 yards). But
rushing the ball — even with a back like Maulbetsch — is not all of football,
as is shown by Michigan's victory over M. A. C. and her touchdowns against
Cornell, all gained by forward passes. And in passing, kicking, and running
back punts, Harvard's superiority was marked. The total amount of groimd
gained by Harvard was nearly 100 yards more than that gained by Michi-
gan. And it was this superiority together with Harvard's solving of Mich-
igan's offense, that won the game. "Right Wing," a well-known eastern
critic, seems to think that the victory was a triumph of eastern tactics over
western; perhaps it may be as fairly said that Harvard won because her
experienced line-men were able to solve the Michigan offense in time to
prevent a score, and were wise enough to choose just the right moment for
their attack on Michigan; perhaps these are merely two different ways of
expressing the same thing. At all events, both sides seemed pleased with
the result; Harvard because she won, Michigan because she made a better
showing than she had expected.

The confidence which resulted from the Harvard game was doubled
and trebled by the easy victory over Pennsylvania on the following Satur-
day. True, the Penn team had not shown great form (having been tied by
Lafayette and beaten by Franklin & Marshall, and eventually winning less
than half its games) but nobody expected the tremendous drubbing which
was administered by Michigan, whose score of 34 to 3 was more of a sur-
prise to the football world than was Dartmouth's victory over Penn by a
score of 41 to o a week later. Michigan was irresistible; Pennsylvania,
hopelessly outclassed, could do nothing; it seemed as if Mr. Yost had ac-
complished the impossible and made a crew of youngsters into a world-beat-
ing team, as if the Harvard game had been a mistake, and the Syracuse
game a bad dream.

Indeed, this belief in Mr. Yost's wizardry lasted into the second half
of the Cornell game. Two beautiful forward passes resulted in two touch-
downs for Michigan in the first half, while Cornell was able to score but
once. But Cornell, while scoring but once in the first half, was learning a
lot about Michigan's style of play, and in the second half proceeded to put
into execution what she had learned. Michigan's attempts to gain were
frustrated by the Cornell defense, while Cornell trotted out a variation of
the old Yale massed interference which soon was going through Michigan
about 7 yards to a play. Michigan seemed unable to solve this play, and
soon crumbled under the fierce attack. The result was a score of 28 to 12
in favor of Cornell — the worst defeat suffered by Michigan since 1908,
when Penn won 29 to o and Syracuse won 28 to 4.

Though the season itself was disastrous enough — due mostly to the im-

position of such a difficult schedule on a green team — the members of the
team have learned a lot of football, and will be sure to give -a good account
of themselves next year. Only Raynsford, Hughitt and McHale are to be
lost to the team (unless difficulties in scholarship arise, which seems un-
likely) ; the 1915 team will therefore be able to begin the season with a
considerable list of fairly experienced men, and may reasonably hope to
turn the tables on some of their 1914 opponents.

THE NATURE AND PURPOSE OF
EDUCATION

THE SECOND ANNUAL C0NVCX:ATI0N ADDRESS BY
DR. VICTOR C. VAUGHAN

The second annual Convocation address was delivered October 16,
1914, by Dr. Victor C. Vaughan, Dean of the Department of Medicine and
Surgery.

Dr. Vaughan discussed "The nature and purpose of Education" and,
in his opening paragraphs asked his audience, "Why are you here?" The
purpose of the University, he said, is to better fit for citizenship. In his
first words, therefore, he emphasized the responsibility of the student to the
University, insisting that intelligence, industry and integrity are the first
essentials for every student. Dr. Vaughan then traced the development of
education of the individual through the modification and development of
behavior through experience. He showed how behavior is determined
through the mechanism of the nervous system, emphasizing the concern of
education especially with the function of the nerves, and continued as fol-
lows:

Man comes into the world the most helpless of all animals. At birth
the child is incapable of locomotion and of finding unaided its food
supply. For months, and indeed for years, the child remains in this helpless
state. The dog in the first six months of its life learns more than the child
does in years. It is the superiority of his nervous mechanism that has given
man dominion over the earth and all that is therein. We need sound bones,
strong muscles and healthy organs, because these render the development of
the nervous system possible, and the health of the body, as a whole, is es-
sential to the well-developed man. We can have no correct conception of
education vsrithout some knowledge of the mechanism employed in its acqui-
sition. Briefly considered, the nervous system consists of receptors or spe-
cial senses, which are stimulated by the environment, of conductors which
transmit the stimulation to the central organs and of effectors which control
and direct the responses to the stimuli. The primary function of the nervous
mechanism is to provide paths of conduction between the receptors and
effectors. The first breath of air at birth starts the machinery of respira-
tion. Irritability and automatism are properties of all living things. Even
unicellular organisms, amebae, for instance, in which there is no nervous

tissue, automatically respond to external stimuli, such as food, and changes
in behavior or rudimentary and limited education can be developed in them.
As cell differentiation is evolved the structure of the nervous system be-
comes more complicated and its functions are more diversified and effective.

A sense receptor, such as the eye or ear^ the sensory nerve, such as the
optic or the auditory, the nervous center to which the impression is con-
veyed and the motor nerve, through which the response is transmlttea, con-
stitute the "reflex arc." Reflex action is the simplest function of the nervous
system. Strong light induces contraction of the pupil, the sight or odor of
food causes the saliva to flow, pinching the flesh is followed by muscular
movement. These are examples of innate reflexes. The normal child comes
into the world possessed of these reflexes. A large part of education con-
sists in the co-ordination and development of these innate reflexes. Walking,
talking, reading, writing, are examples of co-ordinated, trained reflexes.

The first lesson we learn in investigating the mechanism of education
is that the sense receptors must be in good condition to start with and must
be kept in the highest state of efficiency as we proceed. The receptors
through which our behavior is modified and developed by environment are
the five senses, seeing, hearing, touch, smell and taste, each of which on
close analysis, is found to be complex. All primary knowledge reaches the
brain through these sources. In no other way can environment modify our
behavior or can we be educated. The dictum of Locke "Nihil in intellectu
est quod non prius in sensu" is not refuted by the addendum of Leibnitz
"Nisi intellectus ipse." When the senses are defective in function, illusions,
hallucinations and delusions control us and dominate our conduct. The
senses may be primarily defective and to some extent these defects may be
removed by medical skill. When normal in mechanism these functions may
be impaired by poisons introduced from without the body, such as alcohol,
or by those generated within the body, such as those due to fatigue or to
disease. Although the truth expressed in the Latin proverb, "Mens sana in
sano corpore" has come down to us from classical times, educators have
been slow to realize its force. Indeed, when mystical scholasticism formu-
lated educational ideals, affliction of the body was believed to be essential to
the highest development of the mind. Fortunately, even educators, one by
one, with some reluctance, are awakening from their dreams and becoming
interested in scientific investigation. Greater benefits in educational methods
have been obtained by observation of the effects of altered environment on
the behavior of animals than have been evolved from the inner consciousness
of the greatest genius. Appreciating the fundamental importance of nor-
mality in securing an education, this university is developing a splendid sys-
tem for the supervision of the health of its students. However, the health
of each individual is largely in his own keeping and I wish to say that idle-
ness, alcoholism and sexual vice remain the most potent factors in student
wreckage. With senses untrained from idleness and benumbed by dissipa-
tion the individual is a failure in college and in the greater school of the
world.

Certain complex reflexes are known as instincts. These play an im-
portant part in education. All instincts are not manifest at the time of

birth, but develop with age and are influenced by the evolution of the indi-
vidual, as a whole. The instinct of play manifests itself in every normal
child and the same is true of the instincts of acquisitiveness, construction,
possession, self-assertion, anger, self-abasement, rivalry, pugnacity, etc.
These need to be controlled and directed, and this constitutes an important
part of education. They are inherited, but are subject to marked modifica-
tion by environment. For instance, the instinct of imitation is one of great
potency in shaping our conduct and in determining not only our own lives,
but of those about us. In this lies sufficient justification of state education.
One scientific farmer in a commimity enhances the value of all the farming
land about him, because he demonstrates the productivity of the soil. One
honest, learned lawyer reduces litigation and a skillful physician not only
alleviates the suffering of the sick, but prevents the spread of the disease.
The highest purpose of this University is to train leaders of men, those
whose influence among their fellows may always be in the right direction.

Success will depend largely upon the environment under which you live
while here. This can not be wholly determined by the university authorities.
To a large extent you will educate one another.

A part of education consists in inhibiting reflexes and suppressing mis-
directed instincts. The only way in which this can be done is by the cultiva-
tion and exercise of certain other reflexes. As we shall see later, nervous
impulses travel most easily over well worn pathways. A function frequently
performed proceeds automatically and to the exclusion of antagonistic ten-
dencies. One of the most difficult things the untrained student has to con-
tend with is diffuse activity. He tries to study, but outside stimuli of vision,
hearing, etc. bombard his sensorium and demand his attention. Training is
essential before calls to purposeless activity can be ignored.

The first impression which one receives in studying the structure and
function of the nervous system is that it is a grossly defective mechanism.
The elements of which it is composed consist of nerve cells with axons and
dendrites. The dendrites are supposed to receive the stimuli and the axons
to conduct them to the next unit. Between these units, called neurones,
there is no direct structural connection. The axons of one imit come in
more or less direct contact with the dendrites of the next, but each neuron is
organically quite distinct from all others. The apparent imperfection lies in
this absence of direct connection. The point of contact between two neurons
is known as a synapse and at this point there is more or less resistance to
the transmission of the stimulus. This apparent imperfection is, however,
in some respects at least, a benefit. Were it not for this delay the brain
would be stormed continuously by stimuli from the outer world and orderly
thought would be quite impossible. Without these apparent imperfections,
sleep would be less restful and anesthetics would not be able to relieve us
of pain. Education consists partly in improving these connections. A path-
way through the nervous tissue having been once opened is more easily
followed by subsequent similar stimuli. This renders possible the formation
of habits. The more frequently a given pathway is traversed, the more
easily stimuli pass until finally transmission occurs without conscious effort.
The first attempt to learn is more or less laborious, but with each repetition

the resistance becomes less and finally the thing is done automatically.
Effectiveness is largely the result of the formation of good habits. In this
way the expert is developed. The best preparation for doing anything is the
fact that you have once or oftener done it and the more frequently it has
been done, the more certainty is there in repeating it. The beginner in teleg-
raphy must give attention to each letter, then he thinks only of words, and
later he advances to phrases and even to sentences.

In learning of this kind, progress is not always uniform. After reach-
ing a certain degree of proficiency there is a period in which there is no ap-
parent progress. These periods are known as plateaus. All students arc
familiar with these depressing states in which effort seems without avail,
but with persistence the curve of learning suddenly begins to rise and the
elation of success is the reward.

The question of the transference of skill acquired in one branch of
learning to another has been debated among psychologists, but the weight of
evidence is that it is not possible. Being an expert mathematician does not
make one an authority in law or medicine. The neural pathways opened up
in the pursuit of different branches of learning are not the same. They
may lie quite far apart and expertness in one line does not imply even
soundness of judgment in another. This is an important matter in educa-
tion and will receive further attention later.

The formation of habit is common to all animals and habits have a
marked influence on behavior. We do things so often that it becomes diffi-
cult to refrain from doing them when the conditions under which they have
been done recur. The most forceful teacher of my college days was wont
to say : "Man is but a bundle of habits and happy is the man whose habits
are his friends." At twenty, it seemed to me that the force of this saying
lay in its sonorous quality. At sixty I realize that its strength lies in its
truth. The young scout the idea that they can not indulge in a vice occasion-
ally without becoming a victim. The chains forged in the smithy of habit
are strong in every link. They may safely hold us in the heaviest storm or
they may drag us to the bottom of smooth seas. Another mistake often
made by youth is the belief that every experience is helpful. There is no
other commodity for which we pay so dearly and the price often is health,
happiness and even Uf e.

Some stimuli make such deep and lasting impressions on the central-
nervous system that the picture may be recalled without the recurrence of the
original stimulus. This is memory. Jennings has shown that there is some
evidence of memory even in unicellular organisms. This becomes more
marked as the animal structures, especially the nervous system, develop.
Even a spider learns by experience and alters its behavior to its own benefit,
when repeatedly subjected to like conditions.

Colvin says: "Memory is a fundamental phenomenon of organic life.
In its widest sense it signifies the fact that impressions once received by an
organism are retained for a greater or less period and that this retention
is indicated in the modified behavior of the organism. The evidence of mem-
ory in animals is their ability to profit by experience. A white rat is placed
at the entrance of a maze at the center of which is food. The animal moves

144 THE MICHIGAN ALUMNUS [December

about in an aimless manner until at length it reaches the center. If on suc-
ceeding trials the rat shows an improvement in the accuracy and rapidity
with which it moves about the maze, this means that its earlier attempts
have in some sense left their effects ; they have modified subsequent conduct.
Memory when used in this widest sense of the term, lies at the basis of all
learning. It is a measure of educability."

There are three important factors in memory. The impression must be
"stamped in." It must be correctly associated with other impressions. It
must be subject to recall and proper recognition. The strength of the im-
pression is dependent upon many factors. The brain may be so altered by
inherited defect, trauma, senility, fatigue, disease or toxic agents, that effec-
tive and lasting impressions can not be made. So .long as the brain remams
in the abnormal condition its receptivity can not be improved. The men-
tally defective can be educated to a certain point, but can go no farther. An
impression may be "stamped in" by the force or unusual character of the
external stimulus. The external world demands the attention of the individ-
ual and an unusual sight, noise or other sensation makes a never-to-be-for-
gotten impression. This is known as passive attention and is common to all
animals. It is the basic principle in all attempts to modify behavior through
hope of reward or fear of punishment and is highly effective in the control
and training of the lower animals and ignorant men, but loses in power
with the development of intellect. However, in this and other universities,
this appeal to increased effort is employed in the form of grades, admission
to special societies, the bestowal of insignia of distinction, etc., and on most
men in our stage of development it is not without eflfect. The approval of
our fellows as shown by social, political and intellectual preferment, still
proves a potent incentive to increased effort. With the development of in-
tellect, passive attention is largely supplanted by the active form. In the
latter the individual selects the stimuli which are to make permanent impres-
sions. An important function in the accomplishment of this purpose is the
rejection of stimuli believed to be unimportant or harmful and seizing upon
and fixing of those recognized as of greatest value. In this selection lies
the pathway to wisdom. It determines the ideals of the individual. It shapes
the ^o and sets the lines of future development. The memory pictures
photographed in the highly labile molecules of the brain constitute a record
of all our available knowledge, not only that gained through personal experi-
ence, but that acquired from any source. We rehear the spoken and reread
the written word. We recall the facts of history. We utilize without con-
scious effort in our daily dealings the mathematical skill acquired in child-
hood. We make practical application of the scientific discoveries of the
past in supplying ourselves with the necessities and comforts of life. We
enjoy the literature of all nations in all ages. In short, the storehouses of
learning to which we have access are practically limitless in their wealth
and from this we may select at will and appropriate to our own use without
diminishing to the smallest d^^ee what is left for others.

In order to be of greatest service, memory pictures must be clear and
properly placed. Clearness and association are essential to prompt recall
and correct recognition. Memory, like all other functions of the nervous

mechanism, is capable of improvement by exercise. When memory pictures
have a faulty setting, they may influence behavior disastrously. The old
man thinks all this talk about impure milk killing infants and infected water
causing typhoid fever is nonsense, because all his life people, both yoimg
and old, have been drinking dirty milk and polluted water. He does not
know or recognize the fact that many even within his own circle have died
from these causes. In his experience these facts have not been recognized
as possessing any causal relationship. Half his children have died from the
summer diarrheas of infancy and others have died in youth from typhoid,
but he has always connected these bereavements with the world-old belief
that disease could not be prevented nor death delayed. The failure to prop-
erly correlate experiences or their memory pictures is one of the tnings
which prevents many elderly people, especially the untrained, from adjusting
themselves to advances in knowledge. Many superstitious rites and cere-
monies have their origin in the faulty conception of cause and effect. Many
reason post hoc ergo propter hoc. This faulty logic is still a strong support
of charlatanism in its many survival forms.

The study of the structure and function of the nervous mechanism
makes plain what should be attempted in securing an education. We have
seen that in the acquisition of knowledge pathways to the cerebral cortex
must be opened up. Conduction of nervous impulses meets with resist-
ance as it passes from one neuron to the next. This resistance grows less
with each traverse of the impulse along the same path and with frequent
repetition the trail becomes so smooth that impulses pass through without
conscious effort. It is easier to open up pathways to the cortex in youth
than in later years because the liability and plasticity of the nervous tissue
decrease with advancing age. However, lines of conduction established in
the plastic period are never obliterated save by disease or death. Even with
approaching senility, when the opening of new lines is impossible, those es-
tablished in youth continue to operate. Truly, learning becomes the solace
of age. The educated octogenarian remains in sympathy and intelligent
touch with the outer world, while his untrained brother finds himself iso-
lated and marooned on a small barren island. Furthermore, it has been
demonstrated that the lines of conduction which serve in one department
of learning are useless in the conduction of information from other sources.
The acquisition of mathematical skill does not give special preparation for
historical erudition. These elemental psychological facts indicate that in
youth training of the nervous system should be broad, the purpose being to
establish many and diversified sources for the supply of mental pabulum.
Symmetrical exercise is as essential to the normal development of the
nervous system as it is in muscular training. Athletes are not made by put-
ting all muscles save one in plaster casts and exercising the free one, neither
can the functions of the brain be properly developed in such a way.

Dr. Vaughan then discussed the fundamental subjects which should
form the basis of education. In turn he showed the desirability of the
study of language, emphasizing Greek and Latin as a great factor in the
comprehension of other languages partly derived from them. But the man

who knows the classics and nothing more is blind and deaf to much which
is of the highest interest both to himself and his fellows. French and Ger-
man are almost equally necessary for modem scientific workers, while math-
ematics through plane trigonometry is an essential of everyone's develop-
ment. History and the fundamental principles and facts of the physical,
chemical and biological sciences should also be included in the courses
taken by every student who wishes a broad and general education, whatever
his business or professional calling is to be.
The speaker then continued :

While I have made an earnest plea for a broad, liberal, fundamental
education in order that we may be in intelligent touch with the basic condi-
tions that control and modify human behavior, there is like physiological,
reason for advising every student to build on this broad foundation his spe-
cialty. When you have reared your house with heavy rocks for the founda-
tion, massive walls, bound together with steel beams, on this you can carry
up as high as you please the tower which will afford you an outlook. Take
one subject and know everything that is known about it and if possible know
more than any one else. In other words, in addition to your general knowl-
edge be a specialist. To your general knowledge, add the skill of the expert.
The physiological reasons for this advice must be evident to all who have
followed my Hne of argument. Neural pathways become smoother the more
frequent the travel over them. I recommend expert development for the
following reasons: (i) Extension of the domain of knowledge is secured.
(2) The pleasure known only to the discoverer comes to him who does work
of this kind. (3) It is a rest and recreation to turn into the well-worn paths
along which thought moves automatically.

It is not essential that the special study, which I recommend, should be
in the Hne of one's vocation. It may lie. quite apart from business or pro-
fessional duties.

Many examples from the lives of men who have advanced human
knowledge were then given to show that the special study recommended
must not necessarily be in the line of one's vocation.

SOCIAL SERVICE FOR MICHIGAN MEN

Social service is not a new work for the college man. Nor is the field of
civic reform at all foreign to him. But special organization of college grad-
uates for this work, a movement which has recently started in New York and
some of our other large cities, is distinctly new. It is an organized effort to
make the college man an efficient and useful member of the community, and
to make his training and efficiency of use in return for the benefits which he
has received. It is to the college men that the states are looking more and
more for the intelligent co-operation necessary to n^ake the social and politi-

iqh] social service for MICHIGAN MEN 147

New York, the University of Michigan Club of New York has appointed a
committee consisting of Stanley D. McGraw, '92, Chairman; Allen M.
Broomhall, '02, Treasurer; William A. Ewing, '64; Victor H. Jackson, 'yyd,
ySm; George E. Cutler, '85; William McAndrew, '86; Royal S. Copeland,
'89A and Arnold L. Davis, '98/, to co-operate with the alumni of other col-
leges in enlisting recent graduates who come to New York in some form of
volunteer service for the community. Requests have been received from the
Boys* Clubs, Settlements, Churches, Boy Scouts, Big Brother Movement,
Charities, the City Club, Political Parties and all the leading civic and
social organizations for men to give a little of their spare time.

Seven other cities have similar alumni committees — Chicago, Pitts-
burgh, Philadelphia, Boston, Washington, Buffalo and Montreal — all em-
braced in a national plan of the Y. M. C. A. to connect college graduates
with social and civic activities in the communities where they locate. The
organizer of this work is Oliver F. Cutts, the star tackle of the Harvard
team of 1901. The seniors in the colleges and universities have been asked
to indicate before commencement to what places they are going and what
form of service most interests them. The names of these seniors are then
sent to Mr. Cutts who distributes them to the committees in charge of the
work in each city. When the men arrive they are called upon by the Field
Secretary who gives them an opportunity to take up some congenial social
work.

During the past year twenty-five Michigan men in New Yoric have
been interested in acting as "big brothers" to boys from the Children's
Court, in working with the Charity Organization Society, in Boy's Clubs, in
Boy Scouts, in teaching a naturalization class at the Y. M. C. A., in giving
legal advice, in watching at the polls and in other forms of political work
for good government. Of the committee, one is running a big club of
street boys in one of the suburbs ; one has thrown open the high school of
which he is principal for the use of the people of the East Side neighbor-
hood in which it is located for practically the entire time outside of school
hours, giving them a roof garden, gymnasium, dance floor, auditorium and
picture gallery; one is active in the Big Brother Movement and two are
officers of the Y. M. C. A.*

The general outline of the work before this organization is given in an
article published in the Nezv York Evening Post for July 11, which The
Alumnus takes pleasure in reprinting in part.

Back in 19 ri somebody awoke to the fact that every year there were
coming to New York City about 1,000 college graduates. These men, it was
realized, were drifting into the city, rooming in scattered sections, working
by day and finding their own pursuits of pleasure or study in the evening,
without ever getting into very close touch with many of the most significant
affairs of New York. Politics looked like a rather big and complicated

♦The committee will be glad to hear of Michigan men coming to New York or
have any man look up the Chairman, Stanley D. McGraw, '92, iii Broadway, or the
Field Secretary, J. Barnard Walton, Intercollegiate Y. M. C. A., 554 West 114th Street.

machine for a young man, with time taken up by many other interests,
to try to study with a view to doing much actual work in connection with it.
The worst social conditions in the city, together with the work being done
to remedy them, were out of sight, so that little appeal was made to the
interest of the new arrival. There was no one to tell them where to begin.
The result was that this company of i,ooo potentially valuable citizens was
being allowed to sift into the great mass of the population, become lost,
and go on past the time when interest could be most naturally aroused
toward the time when other aflFairs and the inertia of established routine
would make it hard to stir the men to much active effort.

The result was that a committee was formed to get hold of the new
men coming to New York year by year. They began by getting the names
of recent graduates in New York from college registrars, class secretaries,
alumni clubs, and friends. The work began naturally among men of Yale,
Harvard. Princeton, and the other universities having large bodies of alumni
in New York, but it spread rapidly to others. Williams, Columbia, Cornell,
Amherst, Pennsylvania, and Michigan are among the institutions that have
special committees for the work now, and others are showing an interest
that indicates that the list will continue to grow steadily. From this period
of the summer, when the first men are settling to their work after taking
off their commencement gowns and getting their diplomas framed, to the
late fall, when the last of the contingent who rounded off their courses
with a final long vacation will have been placed, the academic invasion of
New York will be under way, and the intercollegiate committee work will be
at its rush time.*

New York, however, is not the only city in which campaigning is being
done. The advantages of the new plan for turning the training of college
men to useful account in city life were quickly seen, and the news of the
New York movement spread. Boston and Chicago have already followed
the lead in organized effort along similar lines, and are working in co-
operation with New York. Oliver F. Cutts, Harvard Law School, '03, is in
charge of the general organization work. The plan is to carry the work as
far as the interest of college men themselves can be made to take it, and to
set only the country itself as a final natural limit to the ultimate scope of the
work. The ideal is for the development of a nation-wide force of college
men enlisted under this central leadership for concerted effort to improve
the life of the places they adopt as their hon>es. With each new lot of grad-
uates being followed from their colleges, it is not hard to imagine the work
growing to such proportions, since each man will be encouraged by the sense
that he is working in unison with others all over the country and is not
making a more or less futile effort alone.

Whenever it is possible, the appeal is made by men of the same college
as the man who is approached, and often men of the same college are
brought together on the same work. Yale, Harvard, Princeton, Cornell,
and Columbia are each centering a group of boys' club leaders in one settle-
ment in New York. This method is found to be most successful wherever
it can be carried out. When it can not, however, the appeal of the work
itself is usually strong enough, once the men are actually in it.

1914] SOCIAL SERVICE FOR MICHIGAN MEN 149

The principle of making up the committees of the various colleges that
are carrying forward the work of getting in touch with the new men is sim-
ilar to the more general organization work. It is recognized that as a man
grows older and has been out of college some years, he begins to acciunulate
duties which interfere with such work, and also that he begins to get out of
touch with the actual undergraduate body. So the aim is to keep filling in
the committees with a man or two suggested as valuable for such work,
from each class as it leaves college. At the same time, one or two of the
older members are able to drop out and leave their duties to younger hands.
In this way, the membership and influence of the committees are kept con-
stantly fresh, while the new men always come into a board experienced in
the work and able to give training before its officers pass on.

The work to be done is as varied as the life of the citie? themselves.
Almost any man can find something to his taste. Political parties, the
churches, citizens' unions, and city clubs, the Boy Scouts, the Big Brother
organization, the Young Men's Christian Association, and numerous char-
itable and social enterprises are among the institutions interested in the
movement and working in co-operation with it. During the years of 1912
and 1913 men in New York were interested in settlement work, boys' club
work, civic and political work, Sunday schools, legal aid, teaching English
to foreigners, social surveys, and friendly visiting for the Charity Organiza-
tion Society. A number of the men were prime movers in the Honest
Ballot Association, which had so great an influence in the recent election.
In general, the work takes one evening a week, or more time if the men
want to give it. •

Qualifications for the work are so many that they cannot be listed.
Even the star banjo-player of the college glee club can find in connection
with this movement some actually useful purpose to which his ability can
be turned, for musical talent is at a premium. Athletes, of course, are in
particular demand in connection with boys' club work, for there is no man
who can more quickly command the admiration and loyalty of the boys than
the man with a fine body and athletic skill. There is no more magic charm
than the university letter that means that its wearer used to "play on the
team."

Dramatic ability may be turned to organizing wholesome neighborhood
entertainments. Training in law or technical lines can all be used in teach-
ing the foreigners, who are only too anxious to learn about the country to
which they have come and of its work, and who often need only the spur
of the information and encouragement in first principles that a trained man
can give to urge them to take up study and make trained men of themselves.
Knowledge of medicine is always needed in aiding the hundreds of ignorant
families to improve their ways of living. A hobby that appeals to boys, a
love of outdoor life that may be made the basis of plans for taking boys
for excursions and camping in the country, the ability to gain the affection
and confidence of a boy, so necessary in the men in the Big Brother Move-
ment, who are trying to do something with the boys who get into the courts
and are in danger of becoming habitual criminals, all can be used by college
men whose training has given them a conception of character and the intelli-

gence to use their influence to make better citizens of the boys they can
control. Interest in civic reform can always find an outlet in political activ-
ity, and men willing to help by real work can always secure with ease the
introductions necessary to put them in touch with the party organization
leaders in their communities.

Instances of the activities that some of the men are already carrying
on give the best idea of how broad a field is covered. One civil engineer
has become a member of the Sanitation Committee of the Kips Bay Neigh-
boorhood Association in New York, working on sanitary and sewerage
problems, in the district. Another man has charge .of a group of youngsters
at the carpenter benches of the Warren Goddard House; one is leading
a boys' gym club, and another coaching a minstrel show at the same settle-
ment. A mechanical engineer is teaching a civil service class in the Sta-
tionary Firemen's Labor Union, instructing men who are eager to qualify
as stationary engineers. Another civil engineer spent some time investigat-
ing factories for fire prevention, and took a club of boys in training to be
citizens. Boys' club work is one of the most significant lines of endeavor
that the college men take up, and one for which the great majority of men
willing to try are reasonably well fitted.

That the social agencies are beginning to recognize the usefulness of
the inter-collegiate organization is indicated in the requests for help which
have been coming in. From one settlement came the word : "Twenty clubs
waiting to be admitted for want of directors and equipment. We need men
to visit the neighborhood about sanitary precautions. We need men to inter-
est themselves in finding ways to rgach these new citizens and help them to
become part of our country." The Charity Organization Society wrote:
"We need men in all parts of the city." The secretary of the Big Brother
Movement sent in a call for one hundred men to provide "big brothers"
for boys who had come before the Children's Court.

A college man active in politics wrote : "There is no better field than
New York for a college man who wishes to do political work. A man who
is willing to help will find himself welcome in most political organizations."
This fall should see a noticeable extension of the intercollegiate work
along many lines, for it will be the first year that the committees will have
the advantage of being given the addresses of the new men through
the clearing house that is handling the blanks which have been filled out by
this year's seniors. Already the committee has gotten in touch with 250
men through these blanks, and many more should be added before the count
is complete. The first work to be done is to give the prospective workers
a sort of bird's-eye view of the field to be covered. This is done by holding
meetings at which men prominent in the various lines of work meet the
graduates and talk with them, and also by taking the men out to see some
of the actual social work that is being carried on. As the movement grows,
the central committee offices at 554 West 114th Street bid fair to find them-
selves the headquarters for one of the most significant campaigns of volun-
teer civic reform yet undertaken in the country.

ATHLETICS

MICHIGAN, 34; PENNSYLVANIA, 3

The Michigan team reached its highest
point of efficiency when it trounced its old-
time foe, the Pennsylvania Quakers, by
the satisfactory score of 34 to 3, on the af-
ternoon of November 7. Everything which
had been expected, and which Yost had
hoped would be used, in the Harvard game,
came out on this Saturday, in a brilliant,
smas>hing attack and a stonewall defense
which held the rangy opponents helpless
throughout the hour of play.

Like its predecessors in years past, the
1914 appearance of Pennsylvania on Ferry
Field was the signal for a homecoming of
thousands of alumni, and a crowd of ap-
proximately 23,000 people packed the stands
for the game. Ann Arbor took on its an-
nual appearance of collegiate gaiety, and
a perfect co-operation by th« Weather Man
combined to make this Qusdcer-Wolver-
ine game the banner event of Michigan's
1914 gridiron history.

The Varsity was unbeatable this afiter-
noon of November 7. It had been prophe-
sied by many that th« men had "gone stale"
from their supreme efforts in the Harvard
game. And for the first part of the open-
ing quarter, it looked as if these predic-
tions were to prove true.

But from the moment Matthew of Penn
kicked his drop-kick from the 30-yard line
and put the visitors out in front with
the only score of the game up to that
point. Captain Raynsford and his men
rallied to tiie attack which took them sweep-
ing down the field to an overwhelming
victory.

The Varsity's quota of points in the
second quarter was 20, and 14 more were
added in the third. A second string of
backs, shoved into the game in the last
period, was responsible for the absence of
further scores in this quarter. From the
time when Matthew had made his drop-
kick, up until the very last moments of
play, when a series of short forward passes
took the ball down into Michigan terri-
tory, Pennsylvania was helpless on ti>e
offense. The whole of the intervening time
was taken up by the Varsity scoring ma-
x:hine's activities in making touchdowns.

Open play won the game for Michigan.
Two double passes were the direct cause
of the first touchdown. One of them en-

abled Catlett to carry the ball well down
into Penn territory with a 9-yard gain.
A series of short plunges by Maulbetsch
took the pigskin to the 5-yard line, and here
Hughitt and Catlett negotiated their sec-
ond double pass ami the Varsity had scored.

The second and third touchdowns came
directly through two brilliant forward pas-
ses. Benton was on the receiving end of
the first one, taking the ball from Splawn
following a double pass back of the Mich-
igan line, and racing the last 7 yards to a
touchdown. The oUier forward pass was
typical of the deadly team play of the
Varsity. A toss to Benton from Hughitt
was a little too hard, bounding off the
left end's finger tips. But Staatz was
racing alongside of Benton on the play,
and raked in the ball as it glanced from his
team-mate's hands toward him. He was
downed on the 6-yard line, 20 yards being
made on the play. From here Maulbetsch
took the ball over on two plunges.

Hughitt and Maulbetsch made the other
two touchdowns for the Varsity, straight,
hard football, with an occasional trick and
some open formations, being responsible for
the gains which made the last goal-crossing
plunge possible.

As in the games which preceded the
Penn battle, Michigan's left halfback, Maul-
betsch, was the offensive star, his grinding,
smashing plunges through the Penn de-
fense netting more ground than that made
by any other single man on the Michigan
offense. His gains were rendered posstble,
however, by the effective work of the
Varsity linemen in opening up holes in the
Penn defense. Reimann, Cochran and Mc-
Hale were especially effective in this par-
ticular, shoving the Quaker forwards aside
as Maulbetsch slashed by. Catlett was an-
other offensive star, slippery end runs mak-
ing his every attempt to gain a spectacular
dash past the Penn tacklers.

Splawn, though punting better than at
any previous time this year, missed two at-
tempts at drop-kicks. He and Hughitt had
completely recovered from the injuries
which rendered them ineffective at Har-
vard, and both played strong games. Ben-
ton and Staatz at ends were far better than
the veterans who opposed them, Benton es-
pecially starring all the way.

CORNELL, 28; MICHIGAN, 13

All the thrills of victory, then of thread-
bare hope of a win, and finally of defeat,
were combined in the game which closed
the Michigan gridiron season on Ferry
Field, when the veteran eleven from Cor-
nell trotmced the Varsity wit^ a score of
28 to 13. It was the ability of the ex-
perienced, seasoned players from Ithaca to
"come back" in the second half, which won
them the^ heart-breaking^ victory. They
sihowed this ability so convincingly that even
the most enthusiastic Maize rooter was
willing to admit that the winners were the
better team.

The Varsity started into this last game
of the year with the same brilliant dash
and attack which had characterized its
play in the Penn clash, an(} the spurt gave
Michigan a 13 to 6 lead for the first half.
But this attack crumpled, and with it the
defense, when the veteran Ithacans started
their terrific, battering offense in the sec-
ond half, an offense which first rolled back
the Michigan defense, and then completely
routed it.

It was the fact that, at any time up to
the middle of the final quarter, the Varsity
might have gone out in front with a spurt,
that gave to the game its thrills. Even
after the visitors had scored three touch-
downs, Michigan might have taken the
lead by crossing the goal line and kicking
the extra point, for the Cornell kickers were
consecutively missing their attempts at
kicking goal. But when the field-goal by
Barrett and the dashing 58-jrard sprint for
a touchdown by this same brilliant Comel-
lian had robbed the Wolverines of their

last hope, the game turned into a rout, and"
the winners were marching to another
touchdown when the final whistle blew.

The brilliant work of Barrett on offense,
the impregnable defense of Captain
O'Hearn at end, and the concerted, smash-
ing attack of the Cornell backs, featured
the game played by the winners. Barrett's^
punting outclassed that of Splawn, while
his slashing en<l runs time after time put
his team within striking distance, and once
took the ball over for a score from up in
his own territory.

In the words of Coach Yost, "Michigan
lost her *gimp' in the second half." Rei-
mann, Cochran and Staatz were helpless-
before the concerted attack which the Cor-
nell backs pounded at them, and succes-
sive marches down the field for touch-
downs resulted. Twice the Varsity rallied*
and seemed about to retrieve their lost
ground. Once they took the ball near the
middle of the field and Maulbetsch pro-
ceeded to smash his way through for
consistent gains. This rally came just at
the opening of the fourth quarter, Whtn-
the score stood at Cornell 19, Michigan 13,
with the chance for the Varsity to go-
ahead with 7 points. But a forward pass
to Catlett from Splawn went out of bounds-
and the opportunity was gone.

At another time a well-executed for-
ward pass to Catlett, who had been con-
cealed along the side-lines, netted a gain-
of over 40 yards. Maulbetsch failed on
two attempts to gain through the line, and
when two tricks, one a forward pass and
the other from a place-kick formation,
failed, the ball went over to the Ithacans,
and the last opportunity to make up lost
ground was past.

The Varsity's scores came early, and'
seemed to prophesy the same kind of a
Michigan victory which had humbled Penn*
the week before. A fumbled punt by Bar-
rett gave Michigan the ball far down in
Cornell territory. A couple of line plunges-
advanced the ball a short distance, and then
the same kind of a double pass, ending in^
a forward heave, which had fooled Penn-
sylvania, so demoralized the Cornellians
that Staatz was able to take the ball while
standing behind the Red goal line, and
score the first touchdown.

A long forward pass, Hughitt to Ben-
ton, put the ball on the Cornell ii-yard line
at the opening of the second quarter, and
here Yost's now famous "talking play" put
the ball over. In this play the Varsity
lined up, only to seem to hesitate as Tommy
Hughitt called a "change signals," and'
started to walk back toward a new position.
Off guard, the Cornellians were easy prey
to the unexpected plunge of Maulbetsch,
who dashed into their midst while Hughitt

was still talking ; and the Varsity had scor-
ed thdr second and last touchdown.

With the Coraellians leading the attack
during most of the game, Michigan's de-
fensive players were given a better chance
to star than were the backs. Captain Rayns-
ford, Cochran and Benton showed best of
all. Hughitt and Maulbetsch were the chief
cogs in the offense. During the brief time
he was in at end, Dunne exhibited a spec-
tacular strength.

SOPHOMORE UTS CAMPUS CHAMPIONS

By their contested victory over the junior
law team by the score of 2 to o> the team
representing the sophomore lit class won
the Campus football championship in the
last game of the season, on November 20.
Although a lit player later admitted that
he had been responsible for a mistaken
decision by the umpire which gave the game
to his team, the class leaders refused to
play the game over and the title therefore
went to the 1917 men.

The championship game brought to a
close an unusually successful season, in
which 13 teams contested in close to a
half -hundred games. For the first time in
the history of interclass athletics, a thor-
ough coadhing system was in vognie, and
many of the teams had the advantage of
skilled teaching. More care was taken
in the matter of keeping in condition and
in practicing, the ultimate champions in
particular showing their earnestness by
appearing for practice every day during
the season.

The contested play which resulted in the
safety came in the third quarter of the
championship game after Thurston of the

lits had punted close down to the law goal
line. Rowan, playing back for his team,
allowed the ball to bounce along, hoping
that it would go over the goal line for a
touchback. A scuffle occurred near the ball
just before it became "dead" and Umpire
Crawford ruled that Rowan had caused it
to bounce behind the goal line, where the
law player touched it down. The play was
ruled a safety, but later Joslyn of the win-
ners admitted that it was he who had
knocked the ball back of the law goal.

COCHRAN ELECTED CAPTAIN; HUGHITT
WINS CUP

William D. Cochran and Ernest F. Hugh-
itt won the most coveted post-season honors
among Michigan's Varsity football play-
ers, the former being chosen as captain of
the 191S team, and the latter winning the
Schulz-Heston trophy cup which each year
goes to the man deemed most valuable to
his team.

The election of Cochran, right tackle on
the igLj. Varsity, came at the time of the
taking of the football picture. For the
first time in many years, he was the unani-
mous choice of his fellows, getting the fif-
teen ballots on the formal vote. In the in-
formal balloting but two other men had
been named, each getting one vote apiece.

Michigan's new captain starred on de-
fense all durinp: the season just past, and
was also effective in opening up holes for
his backs. His home is in Houghton, Mich.,
where he played four years of prep, school
football, working at center. Inasmuch as
Yost loses his 1914 center through the grad-
uation of Captain James Raynsford, it is
more than likely that once more Michigan
will be led on the field in 1915 by a center-
captain. Ra3msford was a successor to
Center "Bubbles" Paterson, the leader in

1913.

Hughitt's winning of the Schulz-Heston
cup marks the second year of its award,
James B. Craig being the man to receive it
in 1913. This year's holder was practically
the tmanimous choice of the trophy com-
mittee. Captain Raynsford coming second,

Maulbetsch third and Codiran fourth. Head
Coach Yost, Assistant Coach "Oermany"
Schulz, one of the famous Michigan ath-
letes after whom Huston Brothers, the
donors of the trophy, named the award,
and Trainer Steve Farrell composed the
award board, each voting for four men in
the order of their choice. Hughitt was
given two first and one third.

ALL-AMERICAN AND ALL-WESTERN
TEAMS

In all the numerous selections of All-
Western and All-American football teams
which preceded the naming of the eleven
generally conceded the highest place, that
of Walter Camp of Yale, the name of
Maulbetsch, left halfback on the 1914 Var-
sity, was most generally accorded a place.
He was practically the only Michigan play-
er to be accorded first recognition, though
several of the other players were given
places on the "second" elevens.

In the All- Western teams named by Wal-
ter Eckersall of the Chicago Tribune, and
G. W. Axelson of the Chicago Herald,
Maulbetsch was placed at a halfback post
Eckersall put Captain Raynsford at center
^n his second team, giving Cochran a place
at guard on the same eleven. Axelson
named Hughitt as his second string quar-
terback, putting him next to the whirlwind
mini, Clark.

Eastern critics, evidently impressed by
Maulbetsch's showing against Harvard,
have heen nearly unanimous in putting the
Wolverine in their mjrthical backfields. The
other Michigan players, however, have
failed to get general recognition.

SIXTEEN -MV AWARDED

Sixteen Varsity football players received
the certificates which entitle them to the
coveted gridiron "M", in the annual Mich-
igan Union football smoker which was held
in Waterman gymnasium on the Tuesday
night following the Cornell game. The
award was based mainly on participation
in the Pennsylvania and Cornell games,
those making the selections being Coach
Yost, Captain James W. Raynsford, Trainer
Steve Farrell and Graduate Director Phillip
G. Bartelme.

The award of the certificates came just
at the close of the smoker at which nearly
1500 rooters had been given their final
chance to let loose with their yells for the
1914 Varsity. Professor Ralph W. Aigler,
of the Law Department, a member of the
athletic board in control, made the award,
calling each athlete to the platform to re-
ceive his *'diploma" of gridiron merit. Cap-
tain James W. Raynsford, Captain-elect
Wiliam D. Cochran and the veteran Tom-

my Hughitt came first, and were received
enthusiastically, with Maulbetsch also being
accorded deafening applause as he marched
up. All of these men had to make short
speeches to the insistent rooters before they
were allowed to sit down.

The sixteen who this year won the coveted
letter were Captain Raynsford, Cochran,
Hughitt, Catlett, Lyons, James, Bushnell,
McHale, Dunne, Reimann, Watson, Staatz,
Benton, Maulbetsch, Splawn, and Bastian.

Of those who played ii^ the two final
games, Huebel was the only man who did
not win a letter, the selection committee
ruling him out because of the fact that he
had played in but a small number of games.
James, veteran substitute end, was given an
"M" although he did not play in either of
the big home games.

The big smoker was the occasion of one
of the few public addresses which Coach
Fielding H. Yost has made at Michigan,
Refusing to get onto the platform, Yost
stood out in front of the huge gathering
and told what he thought of the men who
had played for him this year, and what he
thought of Michigan athletics. Not a sound
save the coach's soft drawl sounded during
that speech and when it was over he was
given a reception which made even the
roof-raising noise of the forepart of the
celebration sound very small.

"In all my years at Michigan I have
never had to work with a more consci-
entious, a more loyal and willing lot of
men than those who have played this year,"
was the tribute which Yost paid to the
1914 Varsity.

"In every game which Michigan has play-
ed in this and other years, her men have
played clean, have played for the love of
the sport and its good name," was the
tribute he paid to Wolverine athletics.

"This year we had green men. Next
year we will have a more experienced
team. It all depends, of course, on what
the men do when they get out on the field,
but prospects are bright now if the men
work," was his prophecy for the season
of 191 5. He said lots more that sank deep
into the minds and hearts of those who
listened to him, but these key-notes stood
out above the rest.

The smoker of November 17 marked
the second thne that Michigan's football
players have been given certificates entit-
ling them to die Varsity letter. So success-
ful has the practice proven that it is plan-
ned to continue it, and the annual Michigan
Union Smoker will be the occasion of the
presentation.

At this smoker Attorney Francis 'D.
Eaman, '00, of Detroit, James Schermer-
horn, publisher of the Detroit Times, Pro-
fessor Robert E. Bunker, of the Law De-
